KeyEvent constructor

Implementation

    bool canBubble: true,
    bool cancelable: true,
    int keyCode: 0,

  // Currently this works on everything but Safari. Safari throws an
  // "Attempting to change access mechanism for an unconfigurable property"
  // TypeError when trying to do the Object.defineProperty hack, so we avoid
  // this branch if possible.
  // Also, if we want this branch to work in FF, we also need to modify
  // _initKeyboardEvent to also take charCode and keyCode values to
  // initialize initKeyEvent.

  eventObj = new Event.eventType('KeyboardEvent', type,
      canBubble: canBubble, cancelable: cancelable);
