Windows interprets Alt+NumericKeypad keys as entering characters by their 
numeric values.

Scintilla can't prevent this from happening so the Win32 platform was patched 
to ignore numeric keypad keys with Alt.

This could be added to GTK on Windows but it actually stops what the poster 
wants because it disables the ability to use the keypad for rectangular 
selection. It would, however, be clearer and users can be directed to the true 
navigation keys instead of trying to use the numeric key pad.
