Comment (by sysrqb):

 https://github.com/sysrqb/tor-browser/tree/bug16678_1a now contains a
 commit that uses the constant values defined by nsIDOMKeyEvent
 (dom/interfaces/events/nsIDOMKeyEvent.idl) and replaces the existing magic
 numbers. Unfortunately, this touches nearly every line in
 dom/events/KeyCodeConsensus.h, so the code review will be a little
 tedious.
