The keyboard repeat rate and delay are adjusted. Great! CTRL-D and exit that

The new repeat/delay settings are gone (?!?!?!), keyboard is slow/delay is
long-ish again!
Due to a long ago design decision that was encoded in the protocol spec,
when the last client disconnects from the X server it resets everything
to default settings.
You could avoid this by:
- not disconnecting all clients - leave a window manager, xclock, xlogo, etc.
connected.
or
- starting the X server with the "-noreset" flag to disable this feature
See the Xserver(1) man page for details.
