I can see a workaround though: It would be not too hard to write a class that listesn to the keyboard, and when an onKeyDown event is triggered, it reads the key and adds the keycode to an array.
The keycode is then removed at an onKeyUp event. And the isDown method would just have to look through the array. Of course this is suboptimal, as it would never be as efficient as a built-in method to detect the state of a key...
