Comment:
As far as I'm aware, alt-gr is used for "translating" the keys to an
alternate character set. It is also possible to lock the keyboard into
the alternate character set as well, for typing in another language. As
such, we can't override the arrow keys when locked in the that mode, and
it would be confusing to me if the temporary vs. persistent alt-gr modes
had different behaviors.
I think with this observation and your point about autorepeat we can close
this ticket.
