Description adrian CLA 2004-07-13 14:44:35 EDT 
In the Emacs key configuration, when typing e.g., Esc B (to go to the previous
word):
- type "Esc": puts keybinding in its 'waiting for next key' mode ("Esc" is
displayed on the status line) (OK), *BUT* a KeyEvent for Esc is also sent to the
widget (not OK)
- type "B": the previous word command is run (OK), a KeyEvent for B is not sent
to the widget (OK).

As long as the Esc is being consumed by the key binding, it should NOT be also
sent to the widget...
