This card script:

Same here in MC and Rev 2.1.2 on OSX. Seems to be optionkey related since capturing unmodified keystrokes works fine. I wonder if this has to do with how you enter special characters like � (accented e) since you typically have to enter two keystrokes.
I think that is exactly the problem. Mac OS does not send any key codes for certain option key characters until the second key is typed; at that point it combines the two keystrokes into one character with an international diacritical. This isn't really a bug; it is the way Mac OS works.
Other keystrokes are similarly unreported; for example, Shift and Command keys send nothing at all until they are paired with another typed character.
