Hi,

Currently, the GTK port seem to always let Emacs handle keyboard events, 
while NS port test if an INPUT/TEXTAREA element is active and let WKWebView
directly handle the keyboard events in those cases.

I think the GTK way is more flexible, as xwidget-webkit-edit-mode has shown one
can always pass through the event from Emacs side if desired. Shall we
remove those NS-specific code to make the behavior consistent across the two ports?

Best,
Qiantan

In general, not a bad idea.  However, the NS xwidget implementation does
not support passing through input events at all (this is a new feature
in Emacs 29), so that will have to be implemented first.
