[vtkusers] vtkXRenderWindowInteractor bug

[Mathieu Malaterre]

Clinton,
	This is not a bug, X11RenderWindow uses 'XLookupString' to translate 
the key, whereas the Win32RenderWindow uses a tab:
"Virtual Key Code to Unix KeySym Conversion"

	I guess if you don't call the 'XLookupString' you may get the 'real' 
key event.
