Bidirectional keyboard protocol for sandboxed napplet iframes: - Forwards unbound keystrokes to shell - Napplet registers named actions; shell binds keys and pushes binding updates - Smart forwarding: suppress bound keys locally, trigger actions with zero latency - 6 message types: forward, registerAction, registerAction.result, unregisterAction, bindings, action

draftSummary
Bidirectional keyboard protocol for sandboxed napplet iframes. The shell proxies keyboard forwarding and action keybindings — napplets forward keystrokes to the shell for global hotkey processing, and register named actions that the shell can bind to keys.

Napplets register named actions (e.g.,
editor.save). The shell owns the keymap and binds keys to actions. The shell pushes binding updates to the napplet viakeys.bindings. The napplet's shim maintains a local suppress list — bound keys trigger actions locally with zero latency instead of being forwarded to the shell.References
