  * Gradually decreases the interval between word deletion when
    backspace is held down, allowing for fast deletion of large blocks
    of text (fixes bug #1289374). (LP: #1289374)
  * Reduce latency for key press sounds by switching to a SoundEffect
    element (lower latency and better at simultaneous sounds than Audio)
    and triggering the sound on key press rather than on release. (LP:
    #1289372)

Title:
  Delete key doesn't accelerate

Status in “ubuntu-keyboard” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Ubuntu Trusty r188

  1. Go to somewhere you can enter a lot of text.
  2. Type or paste several sentences of text.
  3. Hold down the Delete key.

  What happens: The text is deleted at a steady slow rate.

  What should happen: The deletion steadily accelerates, so that
  deleting lots of text isn't tedious.
