[Mac] StyledText: backspaces deletes too much while IME is active #2412
Describe the bug
A Korean user of our SWT-based application reports following problem. When typing Korean characters, pressing backspace will delete two characters instead of the last entered one.
on MacOS and select the "2-Set Korean" keyboard layout (there are different Korean keyboard layouts, I've only tried this one). Now type (assuming you are using a US keyboard) the characters h e l l o. This will produce following output (mind the last, blue underlined character):
Now press backspace and it will not just remove the underlined character, but also the previous one:
Expected behavior
I would think, if there is a character in composition, pressing backspace should just abort the composition.
Environment:
Select the platform(s) on which the behavior is seen:
All OS
Windows
Linux
macOS
Additional OS info (e.g. OS version, Linux Desktop, etc)
Tried on MacOS 14.7.3.
