Hello, Thanks for sharing this detailed information with the Community.

We have now created a new ticket for the Chrome issue. Please follow https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-76682 for further updates.

The best approach would be to vote and watch the report. Voting increases the report visibility and watching will keep you up to date with everything there!

Atlassian Team,

I think this greatly affects all Japanese users, and it would be nice if it could be fixed with a relatively higher priority.

Thanks in advance.

I am also having the same issue on Ubuntu 22.04 and Mozc, reproduced on both Chrome and FireFox.

To avoid move the cursor again and again, I use a trick, putting space at every biggining of the line. But it is by far not a solution.

This issue significantly keeps impacting my productivity. And the bug remains more than 2 or 3 months even though the ticket https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-76001 is noted as "CLOSED"
