thats a feature - the idea being 'oh the <key> is being held down for no reason', and you press it to undo it. alt tab, for instance..

Incidentally, how long is it supposed to take for this to happen?

In my testing it takes a seemingly random amount of time between half a second and four seconds.

It should always be about 3-4 seconds, but due to the inaccuracy of the type of clock we're using for that it might vary a bit. If it's only half a second, then most likely it was because you're then holding down a different key. It keeps track of the time since any key has been being held down.
