STDOUT is output for piping data and im-config uses it for that purpose. Errors and informational context messages should go to STDERR.
.xsession-errors just record everything on STDERR. (im-config does not set file name.) If you have reference which supports your view of this being bug, please file bug in Debian. By the way, I do not see .xsession-errors in my home directory anymore on my jessie(Debian).
