Nicolas: Discussing during triage, we think the fix is worth landing even if we don't have a good testing solution yet.

Hi, Nicolas! I have tried to reproduce this bug using an affected Nightly build (106.0a1, 2022-09-19) with Ubuntu 18.04 x64 and Win 10 x64, but for some reason the text selection does't get deleted when pressing the fn
key. Do you know what I might be doing wrong?

I think it doesn't reproduce with all keyboards (when we triaged the bug, it was reproducing for jdescottes for example).

Thanks!
Julian, can you please help us checking if the fix is working on latest Beta 107?

I could not reproduce it either, I think in the team :nchevobbe and :ochameau could reproduce. Maybe :Honza as well?
Could one of you try to check if this is fixed on beta 107?

Thanks for testing Honza! We can probably remove the other ni?
