Ibus hangs when I press Supr, Backspace, CTRL+V on text edit, MATE wxWidgets GTK3, and GUI window rendering artefacts

Description

I have a weird issue on EEschema, not sure since when, probably a couple of weeks, in case it is related with some library update. But maybe it is older and I did not notice it before just by chance as I had not been using KiCad for a couple of months. When I open a symbol, and want to edit one of the values or datasheets, for example pressing on Supr, Backspace, CTRL+X, CTRL+V, etc. Eeschema hangs for several seconds. It does not hang when I type letters from the keyboard. Only if I delete already existing ones. Or I press CTRL+V on empty fields. When hanging, I see my CPUs using 4 cores suddenly and my ventilator starts to run.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open a symbol in a schematic by pressing E
  2. Change one character a field by pressing backspace once
  3. Becomes unresponsive. Wait 10 to 20 seconds until it accepts the deletion.
  4. Add more characters, this has no delay.
