IBus sends Unicode directly via commit_text(), bypassing keyboard layout
issues entirely. This provides the same reliable text injection on X11
that we already have on Wayland.
Changes:
- Add X11_IBUS desktop environment enum
- Prefer IBus on both X11 and Wayland (before falling back to xdotool)
- Add tests for X11 IBus preference and fallback behavior
This supersedes the layout-switching approach in PR #206, which only
worked on X11 and had overhead from layout switching.
Closes#199
* fix(test): add missing mocks for IBus engine test
The test_init_auto_activate test was missing mocks for:
- install_ibus_component
- start_engine_process
Without these mocks, the test would fail in CI where IBus is not
installed, as _setup_engine() would fail early and never reach
switch_engine().
* style: fix black formatting in test_ibus_engine.py
* feat(text-injection): add IBus engine for Wayland text injection
Add a custom IBus input method engine for reliable text injection on
Wayland, solving keyboard layout issues with xdotool/wtype.
Key features:
- IBus proxy engine that passes through normal keyboard input
- Text injection via Unix socket IPC
- User-level component installation (no sudo required)
- Auto-reactivation when user switches keyboard layouts
- Graceful fallback when IBus is unavailable
Changes:
- New ibus_engine.py with VocalinuxEngine and IBusTextInjector
- TextInjector now prefers IBus on Wayland for best compatibility
- Add IBus GObject bindings to system dependencies in install.sh
- Add comprehensive tests for IBus engine

* security: secure IBus socket with permissions and peer verification
- Set directory to 0o700 (owner-only access)
- Set socket to 0o600 (owner-only read/write)
- Add SO_PEERCRED verification to reject connections from other users
This provides defense-in-depth: even if directory permissions are
bypassed, the socket server verifies the connecting process UID.

* fix: address PR review feedback for IBus text injection
- Fix infinite loop in socket server by adding _server_running flag
- Use sys.executable instead of hardcoded python3 for venv compatibility

- Fix component XML to use sys.executable in <exec> tag
- Replace unsafe pgrep with PID file tracking and /proc verification
- Integrate TextInjector.stop() in TrayIndicator._quit() for cleanup
- Remove unused is_engine_registered import
- Fix redundant hasattr check to use proper None comparison
- Auto-detect and update stale IBus component XML on startup
