Bug Description

System Details:
    OS: Mac OS X 10.6.5
    iMac, 2.8GHz i7, 4GB 1067MHz DDR3 RAM
    US Keyboard with International US Layout (the keyboard is a normal US keyboard, but I set it as international in the OS because I need to have access to certain characters)

Steps to Reproduce:
    You need to set your keyboard to US International and try inserting one of these keys: ', ", or ^

Expected Results:
    Not locking up after pressing one of these buttons :P. In seriousness, the way that it usually works is, if I want to use that character as is, I press it once and then press the spacebar, or esc, or a directional key, if I want a special latin character like á, é, etc I have to press the modifier key and then an alphabetic character.

Actual Results:
    When I press a modifier key (', ", ^) I am no longer able to insert any other characters at all. It doesn't lock up the program, just the text area, I am unable to perform any kind of text input other than delete, also, cmd + z does not fix the problem.

Version 0.0.6 does not have this problem. It seems that this is a regression.

The keys ` and ~ are also affected by this bug. Sorry about not including that in the initial report, I forgot about those two, baaah.
