I took this patch and it didn't work out directly for me (am using qt port).I made some additional changes and it works.

1.Inside "initKeyBoardEvent" created a new PlatformKeyBoardEvent(set it to m_keyEvent).
2. Use the "charCodeForKeyIdentifier" to get the char code of the keyIdentifier.Used this charCode to get the windowsKeyCode and set the value of m_windowsVirtualKeyCode with this key code.
3. In "EditorClientQt::handleKeyboardEvent" added 2 extra cases to handle home and end key as follows:-
        case VK_HOME:
            frame->editor()->command("MoveToBeginningOfLine").execute();
        case VK_END:
            frame->editor()->command("MoveToEndOfLine").execute();
4. For "A" key, used the key code to set the m_text. (for "!" can we use the char code??)

Let me know your feedback on the changes.
