Re: key-release-event not detected

[Loban A Rahman <loban ugcs caltech edu>]

The weird thing is, I did a get_events call on the applet widget first,
and printed out the mask, and it ONLY had BUTTON_PRESS and
BUTTON_RELEASE. Yet I've been attaching signals to enter-events,
leave-events, focus-events, and key-press-events, and those all work!

Cheers,
Loban
