-final, a huge keyboard lag is back

Greetings;

for the last 3 or 4 minor revisions, and 3 different kde installs I
have had a situation wherein the keyboard repeat goes down to less
than 1 per second, making it very difficult to go back and fix the
typu's my ancient fingers inevitably make. The effect came and went
at seemingly random times.

I hadn't noticed the effect during the approaches to final, -rc4 in
particular maintained its snappiness from the keyboard very well.

This is not accompanied by an observable amount of cpu usage either.
But its back, sometimes non-stop for several minutes at a time with
-final. I have NDI where to look, so I'll leave that to those that
breath src code in their sleep. In this sense, I'm a dumb beta
tester making a use/feel report.

Cheers, Gene
