…ding down arrow keys in Firefox does not traverse list Use keypress event for listening for arrow keys because Firefox and Opera do not repeat keydown events for these keys.

I'm submitting this for discussion.
This commit migrates up and down arrow listeners to the
keypressevent binding. Firefox and Opera do not repeatkeydownevents for these keys so holding down the arrow key traversed through a long list for Chrome but not Firefox and Opera.This should fix the ticket I submitted on this behavior: #7269.
If representing key presses consistently across multiple browsers is important, the current
keydownevents should probably be abstracted into a separate binding. The keydown or keypress for each key could then trigger this separate binding as needed.
