As promised, I submit a patch addressing key input problem in osxvideosink.
Again, thanks to my employer, Neoshpere LLC, for permission to make it public.

Unfortunately, the patch is quite big due to gst_keycode_to_keyname() function.
I think it could be more reasonable to include a cross-platform version of such
a function to somewhere like GstNavigation module and only use this function
from multiple sinks. The problem is that things which are quite
straightforward, for example, on X server and Xlib, on Mac are so confusing due
to different approach to user's input. If there were a unified function to
convert keycode (which are so much platform-independent) to exact GStreamer key
names (which are GStreamer-specific), then it would be better both for sink and
application developers.
