Research direction

Start by reproducing the textField.enterText("azerty") example on French and English environments, then read the related issues #114, #101, #100, and #72 for existing context. Done should mean French keyboard input is handled consistently on an English CI machine and the automated tests pass.

Description

Improvement Major New Feature

The given code

textField.enterText("azerty");

Works well on a French computer. But on an english computer (like CI for automated tests) it wrotes "querty" wich makes fail test.

It seems related to #114 #101 #100 or even #72 .
