Description Masayuki Nakano 2014-05-08 09:59:00 UTC 
This is similar to bug 25373.

Key value table defines the space key as "Spacebar".
Code value table defines the space key as "Space".

I like the latter name since it's shorter and generic for non-physical keyboard.

Oops, "Spacebar" key value has gone since it's a printable key. Marking INVA. Sorry for the spam.
