10) "Whether or not a keydown contributes to the generation of a text
event is implementation dependent." Do you mean specifically a
textInput event here?

Related notes:
Revision 1.160. Updated default action of keydown to be keypress. If the UA does not support keypress (since it is deprecated), the default action of keydown is textinput. For UA's that support keypress, the default action of keypress is textinput. Removed ambiguous statement about implementation dependence as the new spec text handles these differences.
