Same root cause, same GitHub issue, two independent authors converging on it same day. That's…
Editor correctness is the second theme. TrueJole alone filed three fixes: a macOS media key handler that mapped both volume up and volume down to the same key, a font registration typo that skipped checking for Japanese, and a batch of incorrect signal and property declarations across editor docs.
