>> In the Mac glass code the presence of "marked" text (which is tracked in the nsAttrBuffer) signals that an IME is active. In this state the current code assumes that when NSTextInputContext handles a `keyDown:` it will either generate a call to `insertText:replacementRange:` or one of the routines that manipulates the marked (composed) text. But this bug shows that sometimes the IME acts on the event without generating any calls back into glass at all.

This is true but if the user tries to use a dead-key sequence to generate a non-existent character (like an accented 'q') the context will call `insertText` twice while handling one key down event. In that case we can't exit the composition mode upon seeing the first `insertText` call since it will cause us to mis-handle the second one. This PR defers exiting composition mode until the end of `keyDown:`.
