Description

There are bindable actions like

InsertSpace
InsertTab
InsertNewline

but I could not find anything like InsertCharacter that would work for typing anything other than space, tabs and newlines? Is there a suitable event I don't see yet or could something like this be added?

Research direction

Start by locating the existing InsertSpace, InsertTab, and InsertNewline actions and the key-binding or event-dispatch path that invokes them. Determine how character input is represented there; done means a suitable action can be bound to typing characters beyond whitespace, with behavior covered by the relevant tests.
