I've tried what you tried, and found that there were no events logged
until focus was switched to the drawing area widget.

For example, start Paint, focus is on "Stroke Color".  Press right-arrow
key and focus moves to Pencil icon.  Press Tab once and focus will be on
the toolbar tabs.  Again, and focus will move to the Area
(gtk.DrawingArea) widget.

Only with focus there are events seen by key_press.

If you need activity global events, consider accelerators.
