  1. In some programs, such as Sublime Text, the program crashes when you press the Backspace key.
  2. In Firefox app, Gnome Web application, Gnome Text Editor: if the text is selected, the Backspace key does nothing (does not delete the selected text).

Tested in Fedora 38 with Gnome Shell 44.1. Could not reproduce the crashing, but can see that the backspace doesn't work at all in Sublime Text, and selected text is not deleted in Firefox. This was also the case for the built-in Gnome OSK (this extension is basically a set of patches on top of the built-in OSK), so this is most likely an issue either with Sublime Text, or the default OSK.

Edit: Got Sublime Text to crash as well with the built-in OSK.

Ok, I've filed a Sublime Text issue.
