New issue 9572 by [email protected]: gmail: Address autocompletion does  
not work for Korean names
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=9572

How to reproduce:

0. Install Korean IME
1. Add the following 3 addresses to the addressbook:

    - 홍길동 <[email protected]>
    - 홍길수 <[email protected]>
    - 성춘향 <[email protected]>

2. In 'To' field of a new email, switch to Korean IME

3. Type '홍' by pressing 'ghd' and press 'right arrow key'  [1]

What's expected:

    Two email addresses '홍길동' and '홍길수' should show up as candidates.

Actual:
    No candidate shows up.

To get candidates, one can do the following :

1. Type at least two Korean syllables (e.g. '홍길')
2. Press tab to move to the next field
3. Press shift-tab to move back to 'To' field
4. Move the cursor to the right of the second syllable and press
'backspace' to delete the second (last) syllable

This also happens in Safari 3.x on Windows. So, it's either a Webkit issue
or 'Gmail - Webkit' compat issue. I'll also file this internally against
gmail.

Xiaolu:  can you test with C&J IMEs?

[1] Gmail's autocompletion needs more work. It should work without pressing
the right arrow key, but currently it does not. It used to work better than
this and it seems to be a regression in gmail's autocompletion.


It's reported in the Chrome Korean U2U group.
