Since this was only needed for IE <9, perhaps we could land it in 3.x-stable as well?

Code LGTM, but:

@dmethvin wrote at #3235:

It's a bit tricky to test because it needs a real event and not a simulated one.

Have we tested this on a standalone page in IE9-11 to confirm once more that it sets e.which correctly for key events and mouse buttons?

If it sets e.which at all, that value is used. Since IE was the source of the property it's unlikely they have taken it out in the meantime so I think we're safe.
