There is more to this story than we know yet. The standard IME receives key events from the application *before* they get dispatched through the normal facility. You won't see the back key if the IME in onKeyDown()/onKeyUp() if it was actually going to use it to hide itself. There are a number of standard platform applications that intercept the back key like this and work fine with the IME.
