This is a more general problem than just AltGr.  Some Windows keyboards and
other keyboard input tools also use Ctrl or other combinations to generate
certain characters.  These will still fail with the current fix.

WM_CHAR is a character message.  Once you receive a WM_CHAR message, it should
be treated as a character to be inserted into a text area -- apart from the
control characters 1 to 31 and 127.

Modifiers should be completely ignored in a WM_CHAR message.  We don't care how
the character was generated ... just that it was.

Furthermore, a big assumption seems to have been made about how WM_CHAR messages
enter the message queue - there is no guarantee that a WM_CHAR message is in the
queue for a given WM_KEYDOWN message, so you should not peek the queue to see if
a WM_CHAR message has been generated for the keystroke.

Please see http://keyman.typepad.com/keyman_weblog/2008/06/robust-key-mess.html
for details on how to engineer keyboard input.
