I think you answered your own question. :-)
Similarly, I have a bunch of tiny test programs where I do some stuff,
don't bother putting up a form, and then wait for an appStopEvent so I
can see what happened.
They correctly ignore graffiti scribbling and the menu button, and
correctly handle the apps, calc, and even find buttons. But, as you
say, (on 3.5) the 123 and abc buttons crash it. Bummer.
AFAICT it's not particularly guaranteed that things will work when
there's no form up, but that doesn't mean they should break gratuitously:
you might not expect FrmDispatchEvent to work well, but SysHandleEvent
ought to.
There's code in SysKeyboardDialog that's supposed to handle this case,
but it doesn't work. I'll file a bug.
