[Daniel van Vugt]

Don't absorb Alt+ArrowKey (et al) events if you're not doing anything with
them. Ensures unused events get sent to the active window. (LP: #953783)

[Didier Roche-Tolomelli (didrocks)]

works well here. The code makes sense and I distro-patched it for ubuntu for now. Approving.

+#. Open gnome-terminal
