Ignore keyboard layout option doesn't work with ru_RU layout

[Yorween]

**Bug description*** Ignore keyboard layout option doesn't work in Firefox (Xorg 1.20.4 session, DWM 6.2 window manager standalone). When system layout is en_US vimium keybindings works, if layout is ru_RU bindings don't work at all. All bindings are default.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Enable en_US and ru_RU layouts with setxkbmap setxkbmap -layout us,ru -option grp:caps_toggle
2. Enable option "Ignore keyboard layout" in vimium settings.
3. Go to any url (e. g. github.com) and try to use keybindings with ru_RU layout turned on.

Um, more tests are needed, so could you disable Vimium and then test on https://gdh1995.github.io/vimium-c/keyboard-test.html ?

It will record your keyboard messages, so when you press a Russian letter corresponding to F, it should report keydown KeyF ф, and so will other letters.

Then, a screen snapshot of the message records would help a lot.

Added: during my test on Ubuntu 18.04 (x86-64) desktop + Firefox 68 + Russian layout, Vimium (master) worked well when I had enabled "Ignore keyboard layout" and then clicked "save options".

Actually with vimium turned on i've got the same results.

Do the lines with key = f or w mean you were using en_US keyboard layout?

Then this issue is because Firefox doesn't get correct "code" info from your window manager, which will mean Vimium can do nothing to work it around.

Added: You may try Chromium under the same window manager software, and if Vimium works well on it, then this is a bug of Firefox - Firefox does have lots of compatibility issues on various versions of Linux.

Correct.

Here's a screenshot from chromium 78.0.3904.108 Seems like it works without a problem with both layouts in chromium.

@v1a0 You may enable the advanced option named Ignore keyboard layout on Vimium Options page, and then Vimium will recognize keys as if you're in an English layout. You may need to click Show Advanced Options firstly to make those advanced options show.
