Public bug reported:

This was working fine before I upgraded to 21.04. Since then I am seeing
what appears to be a bad interaction between the Japanese input method
and anki or anki's underlying widget set. Hiragana input works by typing
the roman characters that make up a word. After typing a few characters
you'll get suggestions for the correct Japanese text.

For example, I type aimasu, which will appear on screen as あいます, with
the suggestion that I probably meant 会います which I can select from a
drop-down.

Since upgrading to 21.04 when I type the first character into the anki
"Add card" dialog I see the first hiragana あ appear correctly, the "i"
character appears to be ignored and maybe is the place things fail,
followed by the roman characters for "masu". In other words, aismasu
appears on the screen as あmasu as opposed to the correct あいます. The drop-
down I would normally expect to see appears only for the あ character and
then gets stuck on the screen until I switch back to an English input
method and back again to Japanese. I can't enter the full Japanese text,
although my web browser and terminal window are able to accept Japanese
text without any issues.

My input method shows in the UI as "Japanese (Mozc)" with input mode
"hiragana".
