Bug 433335

SUMMARY
(Apologies if this is not the right category, there are too many categories and I cannot seem to figure out which is relevant to the bug report).
Ever since the plasma 5.21 upgrade, 'long press key' does not work anymore. Pre-update, pressing and holding any key on the keyboard would have resulted in the key press repeating (e.g. If I held backspace, it would keep deleting characters until I release it). Ever since the update, this does not work at all.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Upgrade to Plasma 5.21 
2. Open any application that requires text editing (e.g. Kate).
3. Press and hold any character on your keyboard.

OBSERVED RESULT
The action is only triggered once.

EXPECTED RESULT
After a delay, it should have kept repeating the key press until I release the key.
