           Summary: when using dvorak, event.keyup reports qwerty keyCodes
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh Intel
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.6
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: New Bugs

The other day when i was browsing ffffound, i noticed that pushing the C key
(maps to J) to navigate down no longer worked. I assumed this was a webpage
error, until i realized that pushing the actual J key caused the navigation to
work again.

I made an html page, which i am attaching, that adds an a keyup event to
document and reports the event.keyCode and Sting.fromCharCode(event.keyCode) so
you can see what i mean. Neither Safari, Chrome or Firefox have this problem,
only webkit nightlies.

So, again, the error is that when i push the F key on my keyboard on the
attached page, webkit reports that i pushed F while every other browser reports
(correctly) that i pushed U.

Hope that helps, it's my first bug report, but i tried to make something to
easily test this.

best,
