[bug] Pressing any key in X11 results in MainEventsCleared event, even if Tauri app minimized

[ReactorScram]

Describe the bug

Hi - I searched a bit for "x11" and "keyboard" and "MainEventsCleared" and didn't see any similar issue.

And maybe this is intentional, it allows tao to implement global keyboard shortcuts. And I know X11 is very "chatty" about input events whereas Wayland is very secure and sandboxy about them, but I'm still on xfce + x11.

But even as I'm typing this, and my Tauri app is minimized, in my terminal I see a MainEventsCleared for every single key I press. Or even keyup and keydown for the Ctrl key.

It bothers me because it means if I have 10 Tauri apps running on my x11 desktop, every keypress in any window will wake up 10 threads in 10 processes.

Is this on purpose? Can I ask Tauri / Tao not to subscribe to global keyboard events to save CPU / laptop battery?

Reproduction

Create a Tauri app using the default template, then put a tracing::info! or similar in the MainEventsCleared handler. On xfce4 + X11, every single key up and key down, even in Firefox, while the Tauri app is minimized on another workspace, results in the Tauri main thread waking up and handling a MainEventsCleared event.

Expected behavior

I expected my Tauri app to sleep when it's minimized and an unrelated app is getting key events.

I don't expect X11 to broadcast every key event to every X11 client app by default, because that would mean having 100 apps open wakes 100 threads on every keyup and keydown.

I don't expect Tao / Tauri to register to listen for global key events by default, because it uses extra CPU and battery and RAM.
