The proposed patch allows you to switch off the mpl-axes-interaction during key_press_event's for a specific axes using

ax.set_auto_key_press(False).

This problem was discussed in sep-dec 2008 "OSX 10.5 event.key bug", which was initially posted by James Schombert and I hope I made it to implement the latest proposal of John Hunter in dec 2008.

I changed the backend_bases.py and the axes.py accordingly.

I updated the patches including application of new method in widgets.py (Sorry I couldn't resist to make some minor changes according to the coding style in the widgets.py)
