Research direction
Examine the existing jwerty.key() implementation in the source code (likely jwerty.js). Understand how it currently binds to elements. Then extend it to accept an optional delegateSelector parameter, and use event delegation by checking e.target matches the selector. Ensure backward compatibility. Look at jQuery's .on() documentation for reference.
