Well, I guess it depends on keyboards. Both of my keyboards are Logitech
wireless keyboards that have three keys to the left of the space bar,
labelled:

  Ctrl
  Start/Alt/Option
  Alt/(apple symbol)/(cloverleaf symbol)

Yes, I know, the two "alts" not withstanding, these generate the following
keys (note that in Windows they are generated automatically; in Mac the raw
keycodes for the modifier keys aren't generated until you type another key
and you get the raw keyCode for *that* key instead):

Windows
----------
  Ctrl --> (65507) / controlKey is 'down'
  Start/Alt/Option --> (65388) / no modifier keys are down
  Alt/(apple symbol)/(cloverleaf symbol) --> (65513) / optionKey is 'down'

Mac
----
  Ctrl --> controlKey is 'down'
  Start/Alt/Option --> optionKey is 'down'
  Alt/(apple symbol)/(cloverleaf symbol) --> commandKey is 'down'

HTH,
