I'm not sure, but perhaps GTK's programmable accelerator system is taking the keypress events before you see them? I'd wonder about the wisdom of doing this (though of course I don't know what or why you need keypresses). It sounds like you might be wandering away from the expected behaviour for a GTK application and you're likely to confuse users more than help them. Is there some way you can get the effect you want and stay within the HIG?
