Hi,

I think your issue is not related to DOM. The key repetition should
behave exactly the way you have described it: there is a timeout before
considering the keypress as a key repetition instead of a simple long
keypress. This timeout is probably a system setting and not related to
Firefox.

By the way, why do you need a continuous flow of keypress events?
