First of all thanks for this detailed issue.
This issue had been investigated thoroughly when it was first reported internally. The surprising detail in this report is that the issue is not reproducible before 1.7. I will look into this.
The main problem with POBox is the fact that it is deprecated. Since 2021 Sony has been shipping new Xperia devices with Gboard pre-installed. Although we are aware that there is still a considerable amount of users still using POBox, the described behavior is caused by POBox's noncompliant behavior with InputConnection and InputMethodManager documentation. However, this is understandable since TextView implementation was also not respecting the behavior that is expected from Editors.
Ultimately we have decided to enforce the documented behavior with specifically regards to when editors should call InputMethodManager.updateSelection. Also, although unconfirmed, there were traces of possible custom code being included in Sony OEM images that changed how InputMethodManager was notified from TextView. If POBox also depended on something like this, it would be impossible for Compose code to replicate the same unknown behavior.

Or is that option not available?
Even if the root cause is POBox, from the perspective of the app's customers, it looks like an app bug, so this issue is a blocker against updating Jetpack Compose.
Description
Version used: 1.0.0-rc01
I recently worked on an app with package name 'in.bitotsav', and used navigation architecture component to implement a single activity structure. I had been using safeargs using
apply plugin: "androidx.navigation.safeargs"
But just now, I discovered the availability of "androidx.navigation.safeargs.kotlin", so I tried applying it. But it leads to compilation error due to the 'in' part of the package name not being escaped in the generated code, for statements like:
override fun getActionId(): Int = in.bitotsav.R.id.action_global_destEventDetail
and
fun actionDestLoginToDestRegistration(): NavDirections =
ActionOnlyNavDirections(in.bitotsav.R.id.action_destLogin_to_destRegistration)
This can be fixed if the 'in' is escaped with backticks, as:
override fun getActionId(): Int = `in`.bitotsav.R.id.action_global_destEventDetail
This is also what is done by android studio in imports.
