You did not have to touch input system. It has nothing to do with
graphics.

Yes, there would be nice to have some changes to keyboard layer. BUT
YOU SHOULD NOT BASE KEYBOARD PATCHES ON GGI. If keyboard patches are
good thing, they are good thing independend of GGI, and you should be
trying to get them into mainstream.
