Mir input events support key-repeat state. QtMir isn't passing this to the shell however, and thus not passing it to client.
QtUbuntu probably also needs to support the same.

Title:
  Pressing a HW key like backspace doesn't autorepeat

Status in QtMir:
  Confirmed
Status in qtubuntu:
  New
Status in qtmir package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When using unity8 on the desktop with a hardware keyboard, autorepeat
  doesn't work. For example, keeping the backspace key pressed doesn't
  gradually erase all the characters, the caret doesn't move after the
  first keypress. This works correctly with an onscreen keyboard.
