A while ago, I asked about that on tor-talk:
https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-talk/2015-July/038624.html

A suggestion back then was

> A keystroke reclocker / normalizer might be better integrated

> code it once, and could tune it to suit you however you want.
> Try checking with your OS.


which I'd also prefer instead of replicating that feature into every
program that communicates with the outside world...
