* A KeyEventPostProcessor cooperates with the current KeyboardFocusManager
* in the final resolution of all unconsumed KeyEvents. KeyEventPostProcessors
* registered with the current KeyboardFocusManager will receive KeyEvents
* after the KeyEvents have been dispatched to and handled by their targets.
* KeyEvents that would have been otherwise discarded because no Component in
* the application currently owns the focus will also be forwarded to
* registered KeyEventPostProcessors. This will allow applications to implement
* features that require global KeyEvent post-handling, such as menu shortcuts.
* <p>
* Note that the KeyboardFocusManager itself implements KeyEventPostProcessor.
* By default, the current KeyboardFocusManager will be the final
* KeyEventPostProcessor in the chain. The current KeyboardFocusManager cannot
* be completely deregistered as a KeyEventPostProcessor. However, if a
* KeyEventPostProcessor reports that no further post-processing of the
* KeyEvent should take place, the AWT will consider the event fully handled
* and will take no additional action with regard to the event. (While it is
* possible for client code to register the current KeyboardFocusManager as
* a KeyEventPostProcessor one or more times, this is usually unnecessary and
* not recommended.)
