From Frontend to Fcitx event pipe line and Input Method Engine

Inside Fcitx, The Key event will be wrapped as a KeyEvent object, and be processed by the Fcitx event pipeline. Before sending to the pipeline, if the current layout to be used is not same as the system layout, Fcitx will apply its own XKB translation and store the translated key object in the field rawKey. The field key() will be updated accordingly as a normalized rawKey form.
