@Daniel: affects 22.04 and 22.10 as well. Behavior additionally regressed in the way, that it is now impossible to access those characters, since the popup of the characters is hidden in the background and when trying to write "ü" by long pressing "u", the popup appears in the background and on releasing the finger, "u" is written in the input field.

Affects all kind of gnome shell password dialogs, e.g. when connecting to wifi etc. This makes Ubuntu / Gnome-Shell in Tablet much less powerful, I hope I can bring this to your attention. Would be great if you could either look into this yourself or use your reputation upstream to convince someone else to look into this.

It especially hurts in 22.10, since the osk got a lot more useful in Gnome-Shell 43 by also exposing up keys and modifiers for terminal to make it more useful. This bug here is the only osk bug missing to really make the tablet mode experience nice.
