I also experienced the same problem but on Google Chrome v80 on Archlinux. So maybe this bug is not only restricted to Ubuntu.

Do not press Ctrl or Spacebar, which will commit the word. * Press either Shift key. Expected result: * Nothing happens, or the typed character should not change, to the very least. Actual result: * Typed word reverts back to "aws". The underline on the word still retains, meaning that the word is not yet committed. This issue is a real nuisance when typing a Vietnamese word followed by a Shift-punctuation (e.g. a question mark right after the word). Remarks: * This issue does not happen on any other programs, only happens on Chromium and Google Chrome, version 79. * Using fcitx-mozc, after typing a Japanese word, the Shift key does not change the character. * This issue, more or less, is similar to bug #1859294, although not a strict duplicate.
