[Bug 1402302] [NEW] Cannot Increase Keyboard Repeat Rate

 

Public bug reported:

After entering unity-control-center I see the Keyboard Repeat Rate slide
bar only allows selection between maybe your parent's and grand parent's
settings.  As a strapping young lad I feel discriminated against by this
keyboard repeat rate capping and the restriction on my freedom to
control it.  Please fix the keyboard repeat rate capping.  Next please
work to fix the root problem, the general case.  Someone always thinks
they know best how sensitive I want my mouse or how fast my keyboard
repeat rate is or how small I want my font to be or that I should have a
limit on my headphone volume so that I don't damage my ears.  Please
instead consider a world where free people have private personal devices
on which they control the settings.
