Instead, IM should be auto activated upon text widget focus. It's optional, and on moblin, we package it into a separate package. Then it can be installed on the device where the autoshow feature is needed.
For Gtk and QT app, we have other patches for scim and scim-bridge to support autoshow on focus. And those patches involve a setting interface for user to choose whether they want this feature or not. So, actually, we don't enable auto show by default on Moblin ;) It's up to you to make the decision according to the platform you would deploy Moblin on.
