As Tristan explained, having such a list in Gtk+ would be of
no avail.  When some window grabs the keyboard, it
essentially tells the X server `send all keyboard events to
me'.  If the window has already received the keyboard event,
it cannot tell `hey, I do not want this one, take it back
and process as if no grab existed'.
