Really? By my testing it matches Firefox 2 behaviour on both mac and
windows.
IE behaviour results in the keypress not being fired.
Oh, sorry, i didn't clarify (because that was just a note to be taken
in the context of the earlier event handler definition) the textInput
event is distinct from keypress, the sequence of events is (in vageuly
regex-like syntax):
(keydown -> (keypress -> textInput?)?)+ -> keyup

Actually, that doesn't match current Firefox behavior. But Firefox
behavior changed between Firefox Firefox 1 and 1.5 on non-Mac
platforms [1] and between Firefox 1.5 and Firefox 2 on Mac [2] to
better match IE/Windows.
