Research direction

Start at polyscope.imgui.IsKeyPressed() and trace the keyboard-input bindings used by a polyscope application. Clarify the expected return behavior, then verify that the API lets applications monitor keyboard input reliably.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement Python

polyscope.imgui.IsKeyPressed() exists but doesn't return as expected.
It would be really super useful to figure out the bindings to make this work in order have a polyscope application be able to monitor keyboard input.
