Nikolay, First, background: I am not a xorg developer, but I develop the XKB library used by most Wayland compositors (xkbcommon). The behavior there is the same.
IMO it is worth having a discussion about the behavior. A nice thing about XKB is that it has a specification. It is easier to discuss behavioral changes against a spec than hard-to-understand X code, or 150 comments bugs. Therefore, my proposal for you (or anyone else who is interested in changing the behavior) is to provide a patch against the spec. Even if the actual spec will never change, I still think that a clear proposal, which also considers possible side effects, is the first step forward here. The current spec and the most relevant section is here: https://www.x.org/releases/current/doc/kbproto/xkbproto.html#Key_Actions The current source for the above spec is in the kbproto repository here: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/proto/kbproto/tree/specs/ch06.xml?id=kbproto-1.0.7#n586 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/36812 Title: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/36812/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
