Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1792676

(Core :: Widget: Gtk, defect, P3)

Description

[Maxime Bonvin [:Alaanor]]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/114.0

Steps to reproduce:

If the page contains a code such as "document.body.onkeydown = (event) => console.log('onkeydown', event.shiftKey)" then event.shiftKey will have the inversed value.

See this jsfiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/Alaanor/mfryp17w/1/ and press/release shift and see the console.

Where it works: xorg+firefox, xorg+chromium, wayland+chromium
Where it doesn't work: wayland+firefox, wayland+firefox_nightly

Actual results:

onkeydown event.shiftKey return false
onkeyup event.shiftKey return true

Expected results:

onkeydown event.shiftKey return true
onkeyup event.shiftKey return false
