+     * There is a NSEventType for an event notifying the change of
+     * -[NSEvent modifierFlags], NSEventTypeFlagsChanged but these operations
+     * are performed for any events because a modifier state may change while
+     * the application is inactive (i.e. no events fire) and we don't want to
+     * wait for another modifier state change to detect such a change.
+     *
+     * NSEventModifierFlagCapsLock requires a special treatment. The other flags
+     * are handled in similar manners.
+     *
+     * NSEventModifierFlagCapsLock
+     * ---------------------------
+     *
+     * If CapsLock state is changed, "up" and "down" events will be fired in
+     * sequence, effectively updates CapsLock state on the guest.
+     *
+     * The other flags
+     * ---------------
+     *
+     * If a flag is not set, fire "up" events for all keys which correspond to
+     * the flag. Note that "down" events are not fired here because the flags
+     * checked here do not tell what exact keys are down.
+     *
+     * If one of the keys corresponding to a flag is down, we rely on
+     * -[NSEvent keyCode] of an event whose -[NSEvent type] is
+     * NSEventTypeFlagsChanged to know the exact key which is down, which has
+     * the following two downsides:
+     * - It does not work when the application is inactive as described above.
+     * - It malfactions *after* the modifier state is changed while the
+     *   application is inactive. It is because -[NSEvent keyCode] does not tell
+     *   if the key is up or down, and requires to infer the current state from
+     *   the previous state. It is still possible to fix such a malfanction by
+     *   completely leaving your hands from the keyboard, which hopefully makes
+     *   this implementation usable enough.
