Actions for iPad and Eve

Not sure if this counts as an "issue" as the behaviour may be intended, but I'll post to find out, I guess. I've tried using Actions for iPad (http://getactionsapp.com/) with Eve and can't seem to get it working properly in space. I've mapped some basic nav commands (align, approach, orbit, dock/warp, stop ship) to some buttons on it. With focus in a chat box, it'll happily put the shortcut letter in there. In space, however, nothing happens.

Even more puzzling is that my Razer Nostromo and mouse, with shortcut keys assigned, will happily cause the ship to do things. I've tried unplugging the Nostromo and restarting so Actions is the only thing trying to send keyboard strokes in (apart from the actual keyboard) but still not working. Seems quite an odd behaviour.

I double the issue of EVE in connection with Actions for iPad. I'd really like to use both together...

Personally I think they shouldn't allow anything but real k/b and mouse from sending to the eve client.

Allowing otherwise just makes it easier for macros/bots.
