Wayland - US intl. keyboard layout incompatible with Godot

[perroboc]

Tested versions

v4.3.beta3.official [82cedc8]

System information

Godot v4.3.beta3 - Fedora Linux 40 (KDE Plasma) - Wayland - Vulkan (Forward+) - dedicated AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (RADV NAVI31) - AMD Ryzen 9 7950X 16-Core Processor (32 Threads)

Issue description

Using us keyboard layout English (US, intl., with dead keys), neither single nor double quotes seem to work. This works OK when not using Wayland.

First half of the video is Godot working as intended with Wayland turned off. Second half (when typing hello) is with Wayland enabled, where ' nor " were registered:

Steps to reproduce

Enable Wayland preference on Godot, while using the keyboard layout specified above.

Minimal reproduction project (MRP)

Not needed, as an empty project presents the same issue.

Godot is unable to register quotes and double quotes (' and ") while using the US intl. layout. It does register them while using the US layout.

The difference here is that while using the US layout, ' and " register automatically after pressing the key, while in the US intl. layout, ' and " require a second keystroke to register because they're used to create international characters (like ú and ü when the keystrokes are followed by a u).

The common way to work in any code or text editor while using this layout is to press space after them to register a single character, or press the key twice to get two of them (as in '' or ""). This works as expected on Godot running on X11, and also other wayland editors are able to have this behavior.

• Related to Inputting any keyboard dead keys softlocks the script editor (ibus 1.5.29-rc2 regression, fixed in 1.5.30) #85664.

Can confirm this does not happen in my case. Godot still accepts other keyboard input after dead keys are pressed when configured to use wayland.

$ ibus version

Oops, I'm really sorry, this slipped out of my radar. For some reason lately I've been feeling a bit tired but I'll put this in my TODO list and take a look soon™.

Thanks for your patience.
