Discussion: How to deal with broken winit(WASM) keyboard implementation?

[Woyten]

Unfortunately, winit's WASM implementation of keyboard events is broken. I submitted the issue rust-windowing/winit#2092 but did not receive any feedback so far.

The wrong implementation has a negative impact on nannou. For example, keyboard modifiers and location-based keyboard events are not working correctly. As a result, downstream projects would need to work around the problem like in Woyten/tune@38b7ecd and Woyten/tune@fcec2d3.

I see two options to address this problem:

• Do nothing and wait until scan_code and virtual_key_code are swapped rust-windowing/winit#2092 is fixed. I could do the fixing myself but I would prefer to get some feedback from the winit collaborators first.
• Implement the workarounds in nannou. Clearly the less attractive solution.

Any opinions?
