I'm not seeing that, and its more than occasionally missing a keypress I know darned well I hit. ATM its not doing it, but then I'm rebooted to -rc4 due to instability in final. I've canceled an option I had set in the -finals .config, and a fresh copy is making now. So we'll be able to go back to testing -final in a short. >This doesn't happen in console.
