Bug 403301

SUMMARY
xdotool type is not able to enter text into a GTK/Gnome application running on KDE Plasma

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Gedit
2. Run 3 commands in terminal
windowId=$(xdotool search --name 'Untitled');
echo "windowId is $windowId";
xdotool type --window "$windowId" --delay 100 foo

The above is a "foolproof" method, but I previously used a one-liner in Gnome:
xdotool search --name 'Untitled' windowfocus type --delay 50 foo

OBSERVED RESULT
Text cannot be entered into Gnome/GTK apps by xdotool type when running KDE Plasma

EXPECTED RESULT
xdotool type, types the text into the desired application as expected.
