Tumbleweed - mouse position in GNOME terminal window under Wayland
Anyone is using TW with GNOME under Wayland? Mouse position seems to be off by one line/one column. If I want to select some text, I need to position cursor to the right of the first character (approximately one character off) and below line. I am interested whether you are using physical or virtual system. I am using QEMU with Gtk/virgl console and I had to add QEMU patch to fix mouse positioning when host itself is using Wayland. So I am not sure whether this is QEMU or GNOME issue.

I actually see the same in KDE/Wayland, and I believe this is relevant https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1094 specifically comment https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1094#note_743441 "If I use the caret to normally select text then I end up selecting text 1 line to high and starting one character earlier then I want to". Exactly what I observe. It is claimed to be fixed a year ago, but I still see it. And looking at commit https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1107, it fixes something else.
