Error in Grid class - ignores input from keypad

It appears that data entry from the keypad is broken in the current  
version of the Grid class. In prior versions you could start entry  
into a cell from the keypad. In the current version the keypad keys  
are ignored.

If you start typing using the numeric keys from the main key area you  
can continue with the keypad, but the editor will not open in  
response to the keypad.

This problem can be demonstrated using the wxPython demo. Select the  
Grid demo and open the Simple Grid demo (the first demo button).  
Select a cell and try to type numbers from the keypad.

This obviously has serious user interface implications for any data  
entry application that uses grids.

I am using wxPython 2.8.4.2 on Mac 10.4.10.

Is there a work around that you can recommend?

Thanks,
Brian
