I was just wondering does anyone know who’s responsible for
handling bugs
involving the keyboard layouts and input methods? I suppose input
methods
are somewhat related to accessibility.
There are two open bugs in radar that I posted and both are present in
10.4.2.
3528513 : Input Method Always Supersede Keyboard Layouts
Input methods are treated by the OS as being equivalent to a keyboard
layout. That is, you can either choose a keyboard layout OR an
input method.
There is no way to have an input method act on the roman script
system and
permit the user to still be able to choose one of its keyboard
layouts.
According to comments in the bug, this requires new API to work
properly, and the API will be introduced in Leopard.
3753446: Text service components cannot backspace in Cocoa apps
Text service components can intercept keyboard events and modify
them or
post additional events including backspace to delete previously
typed text.
However, the backspace is ignored by Cocoa applications.
This is assigned to a Cocoa engineer for investigation. Is this
functionality crucial to your input method? The bug might get
investigated sooner if you can explain in the bug why it's important
for it to be fixed.
