wayland: cancel key repeat when keyboard focus is lost SDL_SetKeyboardFocus(NULL) will lift any keys still pressed when keyboard focus leaves the window, but then key repeat comes behind our backs and presses the key down again. This results in an infinite stream of SDL_KEYDOWN events when focus leaves the window with a key down (particularly noticeable with Alt+Tab).
