--- Comment #1 from Fujii Hironori <Hironori.Fujii at sony.com> ---
In Chromium, InputMethodWinBase::DispatchKeyEvent retrieves queued WM_CHAR events, and sets a char information from WM_CHAR to the keydown event.

>  std::vector<MSG> char_msgs;
>  // Combines the WM_KEY* and WM_CHAR messages in the event processing flow
>  // which is necessary to let Chrome IME extension to process the key event
>  // and perform corresponding IME actions.
>  // Chrome IME extension may wants to consume certain key events based on
>  // the character information of WM_CHAR messages. Holding WM_KEY* messages
>  // until WM_CHAR is processed by the IME extension is not feasible because
>  // there is no way to know whether there will or not be a WM_CHAR following
>  // the WM_KEY*.
>  // Chrome never handles dead chars so it is safe to remove/ignore
>  // WM_*DEADCHAR messages.
>  MSG msg;
>  while (::PeekMessage(&msg, native_key_event.hwnd, WM_CHAR, WM_DEADCHAR,
>                       PM_REMOVE)) {
>    if (msg.message == WM_CHAR)
>      char_msgs.push_back(msg);
>  }
>  while (::PeekMessage(&msg, native_key_event.hwnd, WM_SYSCHAR, WM_SYSDEADCHAR,
>                       PM_REMOVE)) {
>    if (msg.message == WM_SYSCHAR)
>      char_msgs.push_back(msg);
>  }
(...)
>  // If only 1 WM_CHAR per the key event, set it as the character of it.
>  if (char_msgs.size() == 1 &&
>      !std::iswcntrl(static_cast<wint_t>(char_msgs[0].wParam)))
>    event->set_character(static_cast<base::char16>(char_msgs[0].wParam));
