New issue 15902 by [email protected]: when 'ㅈㅈㅈ' is typed with Korean IME on, turn it off and replace the string with 'www' http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=15902 This is b/1025045. A lot of Korean users end up typing 'ㅈㅈㅈ' when they mean to type 'www' in omnibox (i mean the url bar of other browsers) because 'ㅈㅈㅈ' corresponds to 'www' with the most popular Korean keyboard layout. When 'ㅈㅈㅈ' is typed at the beginning, switching to English mode and replacing it with 'www' would be handy. (it was requested in the Korean mozilla user group a couple of years ago) We can go a step further and make an intelligent guess of what a user means when a gibberish Korean is typed when she actually means to type an English word (or vice versa). However, there's a Korean patent (a stupid patent office !!) for this and MS ends up payting some money to the patent holder (IIRC) so that we may not do that (Google search quality/spelling team considered this before, I heard). -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
