I can't still make the test pass on macOS Ventura (13.5.2), yet the fix did improve the situation. Previously, fewer keystrokes led to *Fired* being printed.

The cases 2 and 5 do not work for me. I use a PC layout for Russian on Mac, period in this Russian layout is on "/?" key but pressing Ctrl+(/?) doesn't fires the event. Nor is the event fired when I press Alt+Ю (key with ".>").

The fix has resolved the issue with Ctrl+N: it works with the fix but doesn't without it.

Is it possible to print which particular event fired? It could be useful for debugging.

I'd create a list of `Action`s with the names and shortcuts (as a KeyStroke and as string for printing) and then print each action name with corresponding shortcut. Or create a list of objects with corresponding data. I didn't think it through.
