Expected Behavior
- When using a keyboard layout like German (QWERTZ) on Windows,
VKEY_OEM_2should be rendered as#in the menu, not as/(like on the US keyboard layout)
Actual Behavior
VKEY_OEM_2is always renderer as/even if pressingVKEY_OEM_2produces#

ctrl+/as an accelerator: https://gist.github.com/eda6786c4f94483bf58aaa3147f1548f - Switch the keyboard layout to German (QWERTZ) on Windows
relevant code snippet:
const template = [

Additional Information
- From what I can tell,
ctrl+/is parsed here asui::VKEY_OEM_2correctly. - Another example is
ctrl+\which should be rendered asCtrl+âon the Romanian keyboard layout.
