title="NEW - keydown event doesn't fire on iOS when arrow keys pressed on external keyboard"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=149054">https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=149054</a>:
I can confirm that this is still an issue on an iPad Mini FE276LL/A running iOS 9.2 (13C75), with a previous generation bluetooth Apple Wireless Keyboard, typing into iOS Safari.
More specifically, if NO control has focus, no keydown and no keyup events fire at all.
However, if a control DOES has focus, keydown and keyup events do fire, but the keyIdentifier is "Unidentified", and keyCode is 0 (the target is correct, however).
This makes it impossible to develop a web app that responds correctly to navigation using a bluetooth keyboard on iOS.</pre>
