Did we actually get reports from kids about this?

There is a bug which causes key presses in virtual consoles to somehow
get replicated in X when switch back to sugar. For example if you use
vi in the virtual console, quit it with :wq and go back to Sugar, you
will get wq typed in the activities entry. That's confusing, but if
it's the only reason this happen, perhaps it was better to look into
fixing the root cause. Another possibility would be to *not* give
focus to the entry by default.
