There is a comment in WebKitWebView.h:

    gboolean   (* context_menu)                (WebKitWebView               *web_view,
                                                WebKitContextMenu           *context_menu,
                                                void                        *event, /* FIXME: Use a wpe thing here. I'm not sure we want to expose libwpe in the API. */
                                                WebKitHitTestResult         *hit_test_result);

which indicates hesitation to expose libwpe types in the public API, a worthy goal since that results in the function being non-introspectable. Sadly, struct wpe_input_keyboard_event is actually exposed in two places in WebKitInputMethodContext.
