It's quite common (and the default) to use keyboard keys like Z for button inputs that are held a lot, for example as the accelerator in Burnout.

On Mac, on certain SDL versions, this results in a little popup having you pick an accented type of Z, and similar for many other letters. Doesn't actually affect gameplay, but it's quite annoying, so let's get rid of it. Shouldn't hurt the non-affected SDL versions.
