Using this script causes random special characters to be written while typing on Windows

[Whatnoww]

What went wrong?

Absolutely no idea why this happens, but if your using Gimp and this script at the same time in Windows, like exporting multiple images, random special characters get introduced into whatever your typing. It doesn't seem to work in the Windows search bar so that's good.

If you can, tell us the steps to reproduce the problem.

Grab a super large gif and start exporting images. Start typing in a notepad and watch as random characters get introduced at random intervals.

Configuration

Version of Export Layers: Latest stable

Version of GIMP: 2.10

Operating system: Windows 10

As of GIMP 2.10.28, I am unable to reproduce this issue. Does this occur for any image or large GIFs specifically? Does this occur for layers with layer masks or any layers?

However, I remember having some weird images pasted in a different text editor (Zim Wiki which I use) in the past, although I can't seem to reproduce that one either.

I suspect that this may have something to do with Export Layers using copy and paste operations (which is why I'm specifically asking about the layer masks).
