That's mainly because GTK+ ignores key release events in these cases
AFAIK.  OOo needs them to forward along to other objects and listeners,
it is really a tookit too.

However, the solution in place in at least the Fedora Core packages and
upstream OpenOffice.org 2.0 is to keep a list of the last 10 _filtered_
key press events or so and to swallow corresponding key release events
as they come in, so we've already done that.  Michael, are you using
that code?
