The issue seems quite serious, although the downside of it is that it
only affects certain users on certain environments. Before accepting
this into -proposed I'd like to know a bit more: you mentioned in the
impact field that the bug is impacting users (or one user?) on VMware
Horizon VDI, but then followed up that you can't reproduce it. Does it
mean you can't reproduce it reliably on the same environment? Do we know
how many people are actually affected by this bug?

I'm fine with leaving the verification of the bug to a certain set of
actually affected users - as long as we can get solid feedback from them
when using the -proposed packages.

I'm a bit reluctant to accept a upload fixing a bug that is not reliably
reproducible and that I don't know how many actual users are affected
by. Even in the case where the changes are hidden behind an environment
variable. The change here seems solid, but any unneeded change like this
can cause a regression, for instance if after some time the
CHECK_APP_IN_CSV_ENV_VARIABLES macro turns out subtly buggy (highly
improbable, but...), breaking otherwise unaffected users. Ibus is quite
a core component.

Could you provide this information for me before we proceed?
