What about Wayland?

  This is on a tty. So outside of X as well. Both X and Wayland have key down and up events.

    Yep. All GUI systems that I'm aware of have explicit keyDown/keyUp events. They're essential for a number of things. If the Unix console was being designed today, I expect it would also have them, along with a sane system for reporting terminal capabilities and probably a zillion other things. It's too bad none of the console modernization projects have really gained traction. The best we seem to be able to do is fish + UTF-8 + maybe Powerline.
