Ok, then a test case would look something like this:

Test Case
---------
Install ibus from backports. Log out and log back in.
Open a terminal and install basic French support:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
Select fr_FR.UTF-8 when prompted.

Open the Settings app. In the sidebar, click Keyboard
Click +, choose French (France), then choose the French (AZERTY) keyboard
Close the Settings app
In the top right of the screen, click en and switch the keyboard
layout to French (AZERTY)
In the text editor, type é (this is the number 2 key on a US English keyboard).
Now, press the Caps Lock key to enable Caps Lock.
Press the same key. You should get É

Fix

We just need to cherry-pick 6fe1b3145f8 for mutter.

Thank you,
