Public bug reported: I've just installed Ubuntu 18.04 and wanted to set the keyboard repeat delay and speed. So I type "Keyboard", hoping to land in the same place I would on Ubuntu 16, but the Keyboard settings in 18 only have shortcuts. Huh?
I had to Google "how to set the keyboard repeat rate Ubuntu 18", which is already a big red flag. I'm sure there was a reason for that setting to be moved under "Universal Access", but was there a user acceptance test? Maybe it makes some logical or architectural sense to have Keyboard Repeat Settings under "Universal Access", but to me and to many other users[1] it makes no sense at all. To quote one user: "Great UI design. Why would you put keyboard settings in Settings->Keyboard? Haha that'd be stupid! We should hide them in accessibility under what looks like a toggle-button but isn't instead... Edit: Speed is backwards? Oh my god someone *designed* this??"
