Setting e.handled = true in the KeyDown event for a
textbox does not prevent the character from appearing in
the textbox.
The following MSDN article suggests setting a global
variable in the KeyDown event and then in the KeyPress
event setting e.handled = true depending on the global
variable.

This seems a very messy solution to me.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? I am assuming
this is intentional behavior and not a bug - but why?
