    Does anyone know how to suppress auto-repeat within the context of a
    single application?

The X protocol does not provide any support for this.  (And if you think
about the interactions with synchronous grabs, you'll see that providing
support would be hard.)  The best you can do is disable auto-repeat globally
for the specific keys (assuming your server actually supports that).
