https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/dom3events/raw-file/tip/html/DOM3-Events.html#widl-KeyboardEvent-getModifierState

Currently key names are defined by each group. Modifier key is defined in https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/dom3events/raw-file/tip/html/DOM3-Events.html#h4_keys-modifier

So, shouldn't the getModifierState() definition refer the modifier key name table for its argument?

I.e., on Linux, it's better to use "Super" or "Hyper" when Widnows Logo key is pressed.
