Reverting 117033: still glitchy.

OK, so in trying to do this, I have noticed it glitching when I press
the keys at normal speed. So I presume it's not useful to send you that
comparison after all.

See attached image and associated typescript.
In this case I think I just opened the menu-bar and pressed the down
arrow three times at normal speed.

FWIW, I could not make it happen on a RHEL 6.5 system at all.
But on a Debian testing system, it happens with multiple terminal emulators.

(I suspect this is going to be one of those things you need to be able
to reproduce to fix...)
