GTK merged XInput2 functionality at the end of May, so it might be possible;
I haven't looked at it yet. Ideally I would like to be able to select on the
root window as to not tie the input to any particular window. This seems to
be possible using the XInput2 extension directly, but I've run into a few
issues and some things that work but I don't know how or why.

> - this is estimated minimal API based on Gtk needs.
> We should decide which IM features ui should support. May be we can
> leave it as is, and I will return to this issue later after merge

> Input methods support is more complicated than I thought first.

> 2. game.input.x11
> It uses 'dpy' symbol (X11 Display) from x11 which is initiated by
> 'init-x' word (with-ui from ui.backend.x11 calls it).
> I tried to set the value of 'dpy' by gdk functions, and game.input
> demos started to work.
