Yeah, I too thought the same, but will it cause any confusion to the one who is seeing the code?

I know that 2 properties like nativeVirtualKeyCode, nativeScanCode are there. But what value it holds in X11/Windows ..?

I'm thinking like incase of Windows for left arrow key, 
nativeVirtualKeyCode = VK_LEFT
keycode = Qt::Key_Left
nativeScanCode = <some keyboard driver scan code>

Isn't it?
