Whether intentional or not, I don't think it should send it if you hold a key down for a long period of time. It may or may not be a bug based on what Khaled meant to happen, but it should be prevented regardless.

Some versions ago I placed a limit on the number of characters that could be typed into the editbox to prevent the above problem. However the limit also prevented users from pasting multiple lines into a single-line editbox, eg. in the case where they wanted to send several separate lines into a channel or query window. So the limitation was removed to permit this.
