Hi, all!

How to hook a key event in editor page?
For example: I have an editor with ~25-30 widgets on it.
I need to do something on key event, independent of where focus have been. At this time I create ~25-30 key listeners and register its on every widgets. But on FormEditor's not only widgets may have a focus, accordingly key event not hooks every time.

Can I register global listener for whole editor, which will be working on all editor page, independent of where focus is?

ps: sorry for my bad English.

try Display.addFilter(...), but it work for complete workbench (all editors
and views)
