In the terminal, the keycombination `ctrl-left-arrow` and `ctrl-right- arrow` moves the cursor one word to the left and to the right. In Xorg this works, no matter which key you press first (ctrl or arrow). In wayland, you have to press the ctrl key first, otherwise, the cursor will not move. # How to reproduce: type some words in gnome terminal press `left-arrow` key, wait for the cursor to move and, and press `ctrl`. # What happens The cursor first moves one character per "tick", and stops immediately when you press `ctrl`. # What should happen The cursor first moves one character per "tick", and starts moving one word per "tick" when you press `ctrl`.
