I was working on a similar approach when I became unsure if it made sense. It seems that WebCore really needs an NSEvent for input methods - or we need a much deeper refactoring for them to work. I'm not sure if adding injected bundle interfaces is helpful at this point.
One thing I'd like to preserve in eventSender is an ability to create native events (such as NSEvent), to test how they are handled. Testing only WebCore seems particularly insufficient in this case.

Testing only WebCore seems particularly insufficient in this case. My plan was to add a function for each platform that takes a platform specific event (NSEvent on mac) and creates a WKBundleFooEvent from it, this way we could test the conversion (and we wouldn't have to do the manual conversion ourselves in the test runner.
What's the status of this patch? It's been in the review queue for a while.
