[vtkusers] Is there a way to disable the keyboard shortcuts related to VtkRenderInteractorWindow

[Bill Lorensen]

Look at this example:
https://lorensen.github.io/VTKExamples/site/Cxx/Interaction/KeypressEvents/

It subclasses and interactor to handle key press events.
At the end of the class it
// Forward events
vtkInteractorStyleTrackballCamera::OnKeyPress();

It you don't forward the event, you will be ignoring key presses...
