attachment 94030 [details] also serves as a (slightly less obscure) testcase: I get no ctrl/option/cmd keydowns or keyups with a Mac trunk build.

Since bug 44259 comment 18 says it's specifically about the keycode which is sent when a keydown event is fired, and that the event fires, while this is about the events for different keys not firing, it certainly doesn't sound like a dupe to me.

The following looks like it is a manifestation of this bug:
Context: Web-based game with many keyboard shortcuts
Symptom: Cmd-{letter} is passed through to the game as {letter}
Does not occur on the same website when accessed with Windows Firefox.
I would classify this as major. It severely impacts functionality when Cmd-T to open a new tab, instead initiates Travel or Teleport.
If the web page is not set up to use {letter} as a shortcut, Cmd-{letter} functions normally.
This is the site where the behaviour was observed:
