Cmd (⌘) key on Mac forces inputs to stay held

For a very long time, a bug has existed where holding the Cmd (⌘) key in the client causes other keys to have their inputs held until they are pressed again.

Repro: (order is important)

  1. Join any game, for example, the Starting Place
  2. Press down any key, for example the W key, as that will make the character move forward
  3. Press down Cmd key
  4. Release the other (non-Cmd) key
  5. Release the Cmd key
    Now the non-Cmd key that you pressed should now act as-if you are actively holding it. This will persist until you focus another window or press and release that key again.

This bug makes it difficult to take advantage of the Cmd/meta key in experiences as it causes keys to stay held which leads to unwanted behavior.

System: MacOS Sonoma 14.6

Expected behavior

When you release the (non-Cmd) key, it should register as such
