Bug Description
I often use a bluetooth keyboard with the terminal for long periods. When I do so, I have to keep tapping the screen to keep it awake. That in turn enters a tab character so I then have to delete the inserted tab. It's a pretty frustrating way to work.
Instead, every bluetooth keypress should count as a screen wake event.

This isn't bluetooth specific but should count for any keyboard being connected somehow if its bluetooth or usb.
