Research direction

Start by reproducing the report on Windows 11 with winit v0.30.12, using the Bevy issue 22535 as the downstream reference. Compare pressing Alt+[a-z] with the resulting WindowEvent::CursorLeft event, then narrow the behavior to a minimal setup and document a reproducible result.
