Isn't the issue you're describing less about the OS and more about cheap keyboards with awful or nonexistent NKRO? On my keyboard with full NKRO I can press as many keys as I want and the OS will recognize all of them being pressed without fail.

Also, if I'm in a text editorand hold down one key, then start holding down another one, the new one is immediately picked up, which is pretty much identical to this situation.

Yes, that was just an example. Good keyboards and proper handling don't have that issue any more.
