It still isn't working correctly. I've just played with it now, with the 
incremental patch, and see some very odd things.

For example: I held down the letter "j" (a lowercase j), and, as expected, "j"s 
were echoed back at about the right rate. When I let go of the "j", they kept 
on coming. I then held down backspace, and they started to disappear. When they 
were all gone, I let go of backspace. At that point, the keyboard appeared to 
be dead. I played around with only short presses of "a" and 's" for a while, 
and suddenly the "j"s started to come back.

Something else I noticed was that typing a control character would result in a 
doubling of that character. For example, control "u" resulted in "UU".

Now to go figure out how to stop those "j"s again. I left them repeating while 
I wrote this. :-)
