For me, every time this topic comes up, I get recurring nightmares of having to write, set, and apply patches to the Tk source code. From my point of view, we should enjoy what works as it is and remember that for some people, the key handling should respect the general system as opposed to being Pd-specific. Of course, some may have a different opinion, in which case I ask them to contribute working solutions for test/discussion.

The only other solution is to open more issues and *hope* IOhannes fix everything again, but I *think* his feeling is similar to mine above... ;)

Shouldn't/couldn't the filtering of repeated note-ons be done within the
objects on Win and OS X at least?
Oh, just saw this issue
https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/issues/945
and several related others. Seems complicated and a lot of work has gone
into the current behavior already... I am wondering what the current
status is, and if there is any future work planned?

Thanks to everyone working on it!!
