Description

I'm working with keymapping and noticed how much ofEvents needs help....

for instance we are mixing up a lot of things to get around the way GLUT did stuff and since we don't do GLUT can we have it closer to what GLFW does?

Research direction

Start by reading libs/openFrameworks/events/ofEvents.h and the existing keymapping behavior described around GLUT and GLFW. Before implementation, establish the intended GLFW-like mappings and cross-platform scope; the work is done when the expected key behavior is clearly specified and consistently implemented.
