I was basing my comment on the documentation:

Keyboard keys can be represented as integers. These are called key codes.
> You can use toCode and fromCode to convert between key codes and characters.


And the `Char.toKeyCode` function describes its purpose as:

Convert to key code.


But it turns out you're right, there is a simple conversion to integer
happening under the hood.

I think what I'm concerned about is that these strings may be treated as
Unicode and some unintentional conversion will happen without my knowing.
But I haven't tried yet.

Thanks for your help on this.
