componentWillReceiveProps will be deprecated

[iqqmuT]

According to React, using componentWillReceiveProps() is a bad idea and it will be deprecated soon, version 17 seems to be the last supporting the method with that name.

When using keydown for classes, what should be the proper way to handle the key events?

One way to do this will be to do the detection in getDerivedStateFromProps and return state related to keydown state that you can then reference in other lifecycle methods.

Apologies for commenting on a long-closed issue, but does the fact that it's closed mean that you don't intend to update method_decorator_scoped.js to avoid using componentWillReceiveProps?

Hi @jamesremuscat -- I'm a bit swamped at the moment but very happy to review a PR if anyone wants to tackle this. Reopening.
