Here's a Qt bug report, but it's only for X11:
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-8
(It doesn't work on Wayland either. Haven't found a report for Wayland in the
Qt bug tracker.)

The feature is to be able to insert arbitrary unicode characters in text fields
(or a text editor) by pressing Ctrl+Shift+u and then the hexadecimal number of
the unicode character.
Example: Ctrl+Shift+u + 1F600 will give you the emoji 😀.
You can test it in Firefox or other GTK-based applications.
More details on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode_input (Note: The article
claims that it is supported by Qt applications on Linux, what doesn't seem to
be correct)

Can someone explain in plain English what exactly is being requested here? I'm
not understanding what needs to be done to support it, because it isn't clear
to me what the feature is. Thanks!

What would be the new link to that? I've been unable to locate it – I worry
that upstream has somehow accidentally nuked it from their tracker, and thus
that we're perhaps missing input there.

Reopening.
Verified that entering unicode chars (in Kate) still doesn't work currently on
Kubunu 23.10 (Plasma 5.27.8) and Neon Unstable (Plasma 6).

If it is not on Qt's side to implement this (as Christoph tells in #22), which
component would be correct to assign this bug?

Seems like it based upon that comment.

> probably of Qt

This isn't the responsibility of the UI toolkit. Whatever in the system
converts raw key codes to Unicode characters is responsible. On Wayland, this
may indeed be the compositor (kwin_wayland), but I don't know the details of
the Wayland input stack.

I had a short look.

Unfortunately most links to upsteam bug trackers are outdated.

One for X11 is at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11/-/issues/9.

However that would probably not work on Wayland?

Does somebody here have more knowledge about this? Also whether this is still
considered to be an upstream issue (probably of Qt)?

For what it's worth, looking for a solution to this problem myself, I found
that ibus provides this under the label "Emjoi choice", the default shortcut
being Ctrl+Shift+E. Despite it's name it still allows numerical input of any
unicode code point, and seems to work well across apps of different toolkits.

Frankly, I'm a bit uncertain about how ibus relates to KDE's "Keyboard Hardware
and Layout" settings (I fear it's probably two completely separate solutions
for essentially the same problem), but I hope my comment will point users to a
workaround, and developers to a potential mid term approach to a proper
solution.
