Clarification on dead keys #343

@k0nserv

Description

@k0nserv

I did some reasearch based on #263 using a simple macOS app that just logs keyDown events. With my layout(based on Swedish Pro) ^, ¨, ~ don't work correctly since they are dead keys. Handling dead keys involves quite a bit more work that needs to be done in winit. I'm curious if handling dead keys is considered in scope for winit or if that's something that you expect applications themselves to deal with.
