Summary: control key doesnt work with TAB key

Initial Comment:
it appears that no keyDown callback is made when the TAB key is 
pressed while the CONTROL key is down.

the callback was setup 
with:

glutKeyboardFunc(self.onKeyDown)

and it works in 
other cases (such as the TAB key alone), but self.onKeyDown is not 
called when the CONTROL key is down and the TAB key is pressed.

I've marked this pending as there doesn't appear to be
anything we can do save if someone comes up with a work-around.

Reading the docs for glutKeyboardFunc, I don't think this is
supposed to work with GLUT, is it?  The docs imply that only
when an ascii character would be generated is there a
callback generated.  ctrl-tab doesn't likely generate an
ascii code as far as GLUT is concerned, so it likely won't
get reported (and glutSpecialFunc doesn't seem to be able to
catch a tab key either).  Don't know what to suggest, but
don't see this as being a problem with PyOpenGL itself
(unless someone has a better argument).
