Describe the bug*

When scanning a 2D supplier barcode using a USB barcode scanner into the "Scan barcode" modal, the Record and Group separator symbols do not get sent along to the server. I think this happens because these control characters get filtered out by the browser before they reach the input field.

Additionally, when the barcode scanner enters these characters using something like ctrl+ ] or ctrl + 6, these combinations still get sent to the browser itself, changing tabs or doing other stuff. As far as I can see this is because the input field in the modal only stops the propagation of keyup events, not the keydown events that actually trigger these shortcuts.

Steps to Reproduce

Open the "Scan barcode modal"
Scan a 2D barcode with record and group separators

Expected behaviour

The scanned characters get added to the input field and sent to the server.
