I've never really used key repeat option (from GUI), I just disable 
fast-forward temporarily with AltGr-X shortcut.

You can always give config file (-c) for Hatari with the necessary options:
------------------------
[Keyboard]
bDisableKeyRepeat = TRUE
------------------------

Yeah, it's true that language setting is missing from GUI.

Nobody's really asked for it to be in GUI, it would be somewhat 
complicated (depends on TOS version, specified in another dialog), and 
there's not really space for it in current kbd GUI dialog layout (those 
are painful to change).


As to repeat & shortcut change functionality missing from CLI...

Those have been thought more of "change once & forget" things, and 
latter is also *much* easier to do from the GUI.
