           Summary: Custom shortcuts of "Send Keyboard Input" type fail to

SUMMARY: Custom shortcuts of "Send Keyboard Input" type fail to repeat and
sometimes fail to get caught. 


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
0. (Make sure the keyboard repeat is set to repeat on hold)
1. Go to Custom shortcuts
2. Create a new shortcuts called "Right" as a
New->GlobalShortcut->SendKeyboardInput with the Trigger Alt+L (like vim keys)
and set the final action to "Right" (without quotes). Note: Alt is just an
example, this also occurs with meta and other keys. 
3. Save & apply
4. In a text editor, hold Alt+L to trigger new shortcut


OBSERVED RESULT
The right action is observed exactly once, no matter if the shortcut is held or
just pressed once. Additionally, sometimes the shortcut is just missed
altogether and an 'l' gets printed (ignoring the ALT).  

EXPECTED RESULT
The "Right" action should be repeated after the same delay and at the same
frequency as set in the keyboard repeat section.
