Before this patch, If 'sendkey r-o-o-t', only 'rot' can be inputted. People want to panic windows by sending Ctrl-Scrool-Scrool http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/ff545499(v=vs.85).aspx But current events order doesn't work. In physical keyboard. We can prese Ctrl first, then press & release Scroll twice, then release Ctrl. It's very common behavior. So this fix just reference the physical implement, if you want to input same key twice, you have to release it before second pressing.
