My answer here is just based on experimenting with different applications, not programming per se.
Handle the keydown. Let that be the trigger for your logic. That’s what the user would expect based on interacting with other applications.
For example, try a key down in Notepad, and you’ll see that the DOWN triggers the reaction in Notepad. It doesn’t wait for the UP.
