I'm sure there was a reason for a developer to implement such feature as a slow key for certain category of end-users. Unfortunately it happened that the developer treated a headache by cutting the head. I had exact scenario that GKinal reported above, i.e. set up a laptop for my wife with kubuntu and she was happlily working on it for a few days untill she unknownly pressed OK when the system asked her to accept slow key feature. She couldn't use the keyboard at all untill I figured out what actually caused of the problem. I'm aboslutely sure the other category of end-users also need to have a developer attention, i.e. users who do not need this feature. I think I should have a respect at least to know that this feature is active and giving you a hint something like 'keep pressing a key for 3 seconds' if nothing happened on your screen.
