The above comment is a side-effect, because the XIM_FORWARD_EVENT sent back is
usually sent synchronously. so it was the second time event and ibus was just
waiting for XIM_SYNC event.

Anyway, I have tracked down this issue. The real issue is that imsettings
doesn't support any X events forwarded from the different screen yet, but ibus
always sends back the X event without checking that, and set (XKeyEvent
*)ev->same_screen to False. i.e. "xkp.xkey.same_screen = False" in
_xim_forward_gdk_event in client/x11/main.c. this caused discarding the event
in imsettings. I'm still not sure if just forwarding it as is really makes the
expected behaviour and have never tested yet how the event is sent when
inputing something from another screen. thus, I'd suggest to fix this in ibus
as always sending same_screen = False is incorrect at least.
