The bug is fully understood and fully fixed, but it's quite complicated, as it involves multiple components, specifically, the interaction between X and kernel auto-repeat. That's also why the suggested workarounds are quite different, and, presumably, why the devs are not keen to backport the fix to Intrepid, though personally I think putting out a distro in which 99% of users will conclude that autorepeat is broken is very unfortunate, and not fixing it is really dumb from a PR perspective, if nothing else. But maybe it doesn't register in the big picture.
