Under windows, the keypad-keys are reported as
non-keypad keys, eg. the keysym is UP instead of KP_UP.
Binding the KP_UP keysyms fails.

    This is 100% correct according to the MSUE guide.

    So, there is and will exist no possibility to selectively bind the keypad
    keys in Tk?

    To be clear, the MSUE reference specifically states that this
    is the way the keypad should be treated (the same event
    triggering where 2 keys have the same symbol on the
    keyboard). We can optionally separate these by ad[oa]pting
    Mod4 as a special specifier, but the default needs to remain
    as it is.

    Tcl bug 774616 requested the same. Moving to RFE.
