I'm saving that for a later release. I want this one out the door already and there's still plenty left to do as is...

Maybe it would be better to react separately on key down and key up events. This would make the feedback independent of the speed of the host.

The problem with that is when the user types, say, * using Shift-8. I didn't want the emulated Shift key to move when typing something that doesn't involve the emulated Shift key, and the only way to know that for sure is to wait until the PC Shift key is released. I suppose I could put a brief delay between the two paint requests, but since this is something that never seems to have bothered anyone, I think I'll just leave it like it is. The main thing is that when there *is* visible feedback, at least it should be *correct*.
