Thanks.
We have tried to address this by making certain that people understand
that "key" is
an abstraction and does not correlate to a "key code".
Please see the latest editor's draft for full details.

Comment:
It isn't clear that this section has taken into account the potential
difference between key codes and the characters that may result from a
key press on a given keyboard. It seems to assume that the character on
a key cap == the key code identifier == the character produced by
pressing that key == the character that is the value of the key
attribute.
This is not always the case when you take into account a variety of
keyboards serving various different locales.
Please provide some precision as to how a key attribute value is
associated with keyboard events. (Note that this has proved to be a
difficult topic for the specification of DOM3 keyboard events.)
