The keyboard "slowness" may be because of X apps reading from stdin (notably dbus-launch, which shouldn't but does: <http://bugs.debian.org/453755>). dbus-x11 now works around this in Xsession.d by opening /dev/null as stdin, but this isn't really D-Bus' job, and this workaround will be removed when #453755 gets fixed properly. Having a virtual console as the stdin of apps in an X session makes very little sense; please make slim behave like gdm, xdm, etc., which run their X sessions with /dev/null as stdin.
