Details

Delete and backspace don't work as expected in the editor now, because some of the mappings to key codes are wrong in Mac code. This is a simply fix, which I already have in my tree.

Since there is no Mac ender (no Mac mail & news) in dogfood, moving to M4.
Pierre, my fix for this should eliminate the need for the Enter -> Return key hacks in widget, and joki is going to check in a VK_ENTER key code, so we'll have the enter key code sometime soon anyway.
Good. You can reassign the bug to me when we have the VK_ENTER key code and I'll remove the hacks in the Text widget and TextArea widget, or you can do it yourself, as you wish.

Fix checked in. All known raptor virtual key codes are now output where possible. To test, try typing various characters in both text widgets (URL bar in viewer) and in the editor. Ensure that all ASCII characters work, and that arrow keys and other special keys work where implemented. Pay special attention to enter key handling.
