Bug ID: 457258
Summary: Using Chromium with --app mode blocks global shortcuts
in Wayland session
Product: kwin
Version: 5.25.3
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: input
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: relay...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Using chromium inside kiosk or "app" mode results in blocked global inputs. For
example: Alt tabbing, keyboard activated desktop grid or overview, etc. no
longer work if the Chromium app mode window is focused.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. run `chromium --app=https://kde.org/ --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform
--ozone-platform=wayland` in terminal
2. Try to alt tab, activate overview, open application launcher
OBSERVED RESULT
I am blocked from using global shortcuts.
EXPECTED RESULT
I should never be blocked from accessing shortcuts unless some sort of
"permission" is enabled to do so. (say to enable kiosk mode-like behavior.)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This used to work previously, I think 5.24 worked fine, but I'm not sure if a
change in chromium or kde made this happen. Regardless, chromium shouldn't be
allowed to do this without my permission anyways, in my opinion, so this seems
more like a kde issue than chromium. Sorry if this doesn't fit.
