Thank you for submitting the SRU! I think I would need a bit more
regression potential analysis for code changes like these. The
regression potential field's purpose is to analyse which parts of the
system can be potentially broken by the SRUed changes, for instance -
seeing the metacity changes modifying parts of focus handling, a guess
for regression potential could be that focus handling in overall could
be broken, etc.

Could you modify the regression potential field with results of such
investigation? Thank you.

Title:
  Input source options does not work on Bionic with gnome-flashback

Status in gnome-flashback package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in metacity package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in gnome-flashback source package in Bionic:
  New
Status in metacity source package in Bionic:
  New

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * An explanation of the effects of the bug on users and:
     Setting the 'Input Source Options' to 'Allow different sources for each 
window' does not work.

   * justification for backporting the fix to the stable release:
     This is a bug in Ubuntu Bionic's version of gnome-flashback (3.28) 
(because the GUI lets the user change the input source option but the backend 
does nothing)

  [Test Case]

   * detailed instructions how to reproduce the bug
     - Set Input Source Options to Allow different sources for each window in 
gnome-control-center -> Region & Language -> Options
     - Realize that if you set different layouts for different windows it does 
not change automatically when changing windows.

  [Regression Potential]

   * discussion of how regressions are most likely to manifest as a
  result of this change:

    This bug itself is a regression, because it was working in Ubuntu
  Trusty.

  [Other Info]

  This needs fixes in both gnome-flashback and metacity.
  Here are the relevant commits in gnome-3-28 branches:

  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/metacity/commit/b96341dabffc3589 (ensure that 
we ignore our own focus events for focus predictions)
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/metacity/commit/9956d376d38d0ad6 (fix problems 
with focus tracking)
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-flashback/commit/3c4c6ecddef48cd5 
(implement per window input sources)

  The gnome-session-flashback dependency on metacity will be bumped.
