Hmm, this only seems to be an issue with my qt5 compilation.
With the x11 version (configure --disable-qt), it is okay! I can't
type faster than the letters are being displayed.

(Btw, holding a key down in this version does show the repeating
character after a short delay, unlike the qt5 version. I guess that's
just an interesting quirky difference between the two gui's.)
