--- Comment #9 from Chris Rebert <webkit at chrisrebert.com> ---
KeyboardEvent.getModifierState() is useful for purposes besides AltGr, including on Macs; this bug should really be marked "Platform: All". (Looks like nobody has even mentioned non-AltGr use cases thus far.)

For example, the 'Accel' virtual modifier key (http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Events-key/#keys-modifier ) allows you to write keyboard shortcut event handlers without having to detect what OS you're on, since the browser determines for you whether Ctrl or ⌘Command is the customary modifier key for keyboard shortcuts on the user's OS).
