I added the text copied below to fix bug 923791. Do you think it is
sufficient to close this bug? Would it help and be enough if I just add
fcitx to the list?

<title>Some applications don't work in GNOME on Wayland</title>
<para>
 In contrast to Debian releases before buster, <literal>Wayland</literal> is
 now the default display manager that is used by
 <literal>GNOME</literal>. <literal>GNOME</literal> used to default to
 <literal>Xorg</literal> in the past. Some applications, including the
 popular package manager <systemitem role="package">synaptic</systemitem>
 and most screen recording applications, have not been updated to work
 properly under <literal>Wayland</literal>. In order to use these packages,
 one needs to login with <literal>GNOME on Xorg</literal>.
