--- Comment #5 from Masayuki Nakano <[email protected]> ---
According to the purpose of KeyboardEvent.code, even on Mac, the clear key
should be "NumLock". However, I'm not sure if web applications want such
behavior.

KeyboardEvent.key of the key on Mac is "Clear". So, even if KeyboardEvent.code
is "NumLock" on Mac, it might be OK for web apps.

With those reasons, it might be better to use "NumLock" code value for the key
even on Mac. But then, I strongly hope that the table in "6.3.1.4 Numpad
Section" should add comment "Clear key on Mac keyboard" into "Notes
(Informative)" cell for "NumLock".
