Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:
1. Configure Caps lock to switch to the first layout and Shift+Caps lock to the last layout.
dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/input-sources/xkb-options "['grp:shift_caps_switch']"

2. Configure different input sources per window
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.input-sources per-window true

3. Try to use these shortcuts to switch layout in different windows.

Problem: Layout is changed, but globally, not per window.

This is unrelated to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1822775
If I'm using Super+Space or just Caps lock to cycle through layouts, each window can have different layout.

Gnome 3.32 Wayland (On X.Org this shortcut doesn't work)
OS: Ubuntu 19.04
