Opera 10.60a: no keyup event
For the Down arrow inside input field the 'keyup' event is not fired.The test page - no keyup event
I can prevent default behavior to implement my own. For example if an input field is a part of some control. So the menu is not appeared but the 'keyup' event still is not fired. Why Opera decides here the browser is the standard compliant and here it is not?
Not firing the event in standard situation - is not a STANDARD behavior. This causes that some sites works everywhere except Opera and and that's why developers don't like to support non standard browsers and Opera in this case.

Same with Alt, F1, F2, F3, F8, F12...
The common case is: "KeyUp event does not fire if right after KeyDown event the textfield loses it's focus"
The solution: ALL special function keys SHOULD ALWAYS trigger their corresponding special function on button release, but NEVER on button press... Same with mouse buttons...
For example, try holding F1 key for 2 seconds...
That's totally wrong behavior...
Yes, it may feel faster and it may be default behavior on Linux, but it breaks things... There's a lot of work in progress on the Linux side that may be influencing windows version now in a bad way...
