Repro is simply:

'F1'eWC'Form'
'F1.E'eWC'Edit'('Posn' 10 10)('Size' 12 100)('Event' 'KeyPress' 'CBKP')

where CBKP is just a ⎕DL 1 and nothing else.

The messages for the word 'flip' arrive in order (EventIDs starting with) b8, 2d, f9, 89 but Proceeds are issued in the order b8, 89, f9, 2d. While the first one is in its callback waiting on the DL, the others form a backlog.

I believe they must be in the same order? If not, then I believe the client needs to be smarter on this front.

Tested on both main and fix-65-dq.
