Re: key repeating?

Would it make sense to class that as a bug and log it in bugzilla. Given
that this could happen to anyone who did an upgrade, it would make sense
to make gnome a little more resilient to these sort of config problems.
For example if it finds the rate and delay tags missing to set them to
some reasonable values.
