Ok, I'll try to do that (should I reply to the same bug report of the chapter?).

I just noticed that now, but it isn't how I had written. I think it
was changed in the commit.

Yes, I think I understand what you're saying. We can override the
on_key_release_event() (and write something to cout there), and then
call the Gtk::Window version (which will then work as is now).
And also have the one that is called before, so the messages would be:

window before
window overridden
entry
grid
window
