# Title

tvOS doesn't respect UIKeyInput


# Description

Custom UIView classes which implement UIKeyInput do not take input from a bluetooth keyboard or show the on-screen keyboard.


# Steps to Reproduce

1. Implement a UIView class which conforms to UIKeyInput
2. Make that view instance first responder
3. View is first responder, but will not take any key pressed from a connected bluetooth keyboard and the on-screen keyboard will not be visible.


# Expected Results

UIKeyInput method -insertText: to be called on keypresses.


# Actual Results

Nothing happens. Keypresses on a bluetooth keyboard are ignored and the on-screen keyboard is never visible.


# Additional Notes

Attached a project which takes keypresses from a bluetooth keyboard on iOS but does not on tvOS.

Run the InputTest target on iOS with a keyboard attached and start typing. the "TestView" (which implements UIKeyInput) will change color as you type.

Building the InputTestTV target for tvOS, nothing happens when you press a key on the keyboard (even thought the view *is* the first responder).
