AppleScript / System Events keystroke command incorrectly uppercasing output characters 10.12.2 and 10.12.3 Beta 2

Hi There,

I haven't seen this discussed on the forums, but there are now at least two bug reports so I thought I'd mention it here for anybody else and see if I could glean some news about any fix. The gist of the problem from the first bug report I came across rdar://29182929 - http://www.openradar.me/29182929

Basically, if you run this AppleScript:

tell application "Terminal"
  activate
  tell application "System Events" to keystroke "mmalibu@zetetic.net"
end tell

Instead of a lower cased email address you'll see output like:

mmalibu@Zetetic.net

mmalibu@ZEtetic.net
mmalibu@ZETETIc.net

mmalibu@ZETetic.net

Every ten or so it seems to get it right, but otherwise it's unreliable.

This started beginning with Sierra 10.12.2 and is observable on 10.12.3 Developer Beta 2.

There is a work-around that I posted in my "me, too" bug report rdar://29825727 - http://www.openradar.me/29825727

tell application "Terminal"
  activate
  tell application "System Events"
       set outputString to "mmalibu@zetetic.net"
       set len to length of outputString
       repeat with i from 1 to len
            set x to character i of outputString
            keystroke x
            key up {shift}
       end repeat
  end tell
end tell

Anybody else know anything about the bug?

Cheers!
