1437838 - Narrate module should listen to keydown event instead of keypress event

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: Reader Mode, enhancement)

We'll stop dispatching keypress events of non-printable key combinations and narrate module handles only non-printable keys without actual web pages. Therefore, it can change all keypress event listeners to keydown event listeners simply.

Looks like that any script of web pages don't run in reader mode.  If so,
it's safe narrate module to listen to keydown events of non-printable keys
because nobody listens to following keypress events of them.  So, it's OK
to stop dispatching following keypress event of keys handled by keydown
event handlers of narrate module.
