I have been following it for almost a decade now. I am in #gtk idling all the time. I use gtk3 and gtk4 based desktop environments. The dozen of times the bug has been submitted may be closed: but it's a closed wontfix, despite the actual bug still reminaining.
The first instance of the bug report happened in 2014 when mclassen introduced it and refused to fix it. The most recent instance of the bug report happened 7 months ago when I proved to them they'd ported the bug from gtk3 to gtk4 too: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/5872 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/5872 I even showed them a partial patch for the problem for gtkfilechooserwidget.c to restore default text entry input but the filechooser is such spaghetti that everyone is afraid to change anything.
So, yeah, the bug still exists. And it really is more important than another renderer. This is basic functionality that's been missing for a decade.
