Basically it seems like this is what QWidget::setKeyCompression() is for:

void QWidget::setKeyCompression ( bool compress ) [virtual protected] 
[...]
If you turn it on and your program doesn't keep up with key input, Qt may try 
to compress key events so that more than one character can be processed in 
each event. 

For example, a word processor widget might receive 2, 3 or more characters in 
each QKeyEvent::text(), if the layout recalculation takes too long for the 
CPU.
[...]

yourself, "Dijkstra would not have liked this", well that would be enough 
immortality for me.
