I think keyboard lock is what you need. input lock is useless and
could cause problem, you did not block input, you did block all
commands. command is not input, even input blocked, there are still
quite number of commands need to be run.

Implement keyboard lock is not easy. If I were you, I will choose lock
input key after places where mp_input_get_cmd_from_keys get called in
input.c, only blocking single key and key value less than 0x200+128
will block all keyboard input, but possibly keep the combined key
input working (need test).
