[Bug 1466442] [NEW] X11 breaks event order under async process_key_event when client applications spent time during XNextEvent

 

Public bug reported:

This bug comes from:
https://code.google.com/p/ibus/issues/detail?id=1697 which is fixed by
https://github.com/ibus/ibus/commit/b58351ec2f7c057dcfe0aff883064039702a56d7

It affectes Chrome and Chromium making them receive keystrokes out of
order if the machine is running slow.
(https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=410649)

The fix applied upstream is to set sync mode to true instead of false by
default.

The Chromium bug includes quite a bunch of people affected by this
problem.  It would be nice if this fix could be applied in affected
Ubuntu releases (trusty+).
