Link to standard: https://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#ref-for-dom-window-event

Platform coverage: All

Estimated or target release: 65

This was disabled temporarily due to a lot of web apps assume that window.event is available only in IE, and IE stores a Unicode code point in keyCode of "keypress" event. Google Chrome and Edge followed same behavior for both, so, such apps work even with them.

This is now fixed by the both fixes of:
