It needs to be fully implemented.
It seems, it should look like a set of switchable keyboards:

  • Text input ANSI terminal like keyboard: each symbol generates a couple of down/up events surrounded by appropriate modifier keys down/up events.
  • Action keyboard: down/up events are emitted as keys pressed/released and thus no gesture input is possible.
  • Android IME: behavior is similar to text input ANSI terminal like keyboard.

To do:

  • Split current screen keyboard view into Graphical terminal and ANSI terminal ones in order to isolate possible bugs during further development.
  • Split current Graphical terminal screen keyboard into text input and action flavours.
  • Finish implementation of the text input keyboard.
  • Do possible corrections to the Android IME keyboard.
  • Finish implementation of the action keyboard.

Problem

  1. Wayland protocol actually provides input method (text input) / clipboard support.
  2. Xwayland does not implement it.
  3. I hate perpetual patching / recompilation.

Solution

  • Add a small custom protocol extension to provide an additional socket descriptor to a dedicated helper.
