Things I've tried to do to fix:
Ensured I was using a US Keyboard Layout
Made sure Sticky Keys, Slow Keys, and Bouncy Keys were disabled in Accessibility settings
In Gimp:
Made sure Use Dynamic Keyboard Shortcuts was disabled in Preferences
Reset Keyboard Shortcuts to Default Values in Preferences
Using Text Tool - Right clicked and changed input from System IBus to X Input Method & also tried None
Deleted /home config folder of both AppImages and let them rebuild upon reopening.
To review, just in case I may have failed to mention this, the Gimp.org 3.0.6 AppImage works fine, even though it is practically useless for me.
All the custom AppImages, which are 2.10.38 and 3.0.6 and the recent cut down 3.0.6 you provided, are unable to receive any type of keyboard input, not just the renaming of files for Export As or Save As as originally stated, it's every input box.
Keyboard works as expected with every other program and input on current install of Mint. Problem began only with update of Mint from 22.2 to 22.3 Cinnamon; no problems whatsoever before this.
Very soon, I'll try the Mint 22.3 Repository 2.10.36 package install and see if that works and let you know how it goes.
