            Bug ID: 186680
           Summary: Add support for Keyboard Map API
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2

          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: garykac at chromium.org

The Keyboard Map API (`navigator.keyboard.getLayoutMap()`) returns a map which translates from `KeyboardEvent.code` values into a strings that can be shown to the user to identify each key.

This is not possible with existing web platform APIs because the value that should be shown to the user depends on the keyboard layouts that the user has installed and active.
