[BLUEJ-736] Entering non-ASCII characters using AltGr on Windows in SwingNode broken
This is effectively a Java issue, I think, but: on Windows you can use the AltGr (i.e. right-Alt) key to enter special characters (e.g. AltGr+o). In the Stride editor (i.e. pure JavaFX) this works fine; AltGr seems to initially highlight the menu, but once you press o then all is fine. I believe in pure Swing this must have worked fine too. Enter SwingNode: in the Java editor in our FX window, AltGr does not do the right thing.
I suspect the solution might be to prevent AltGr triggering the menu and see if that fixes things (Alt, i.e. left-Alt can still trigger it). I hope this one is fixable because it's a bit of a problem if not.
