Looks like Electron added support for sendEvent. We should replace probably replace our synthetic events with the real ones: electron/electron#2269 (comment)

+1 If an <input> has a javascript powered input mask on it, .type() doesn't let you type into it. I think this is what's necessary to remedy that, because it works fine in CasperJS

.type() uses sendInputEvent. I believe this can be closed.
