Comment #24 on issue 1264 by [email protected]: Bug with Korean mode
https://code.google.com/p/ibus/issues/detail?id=1264
It's strange for me that users do not recognize the preedit and committed
text.
I think it's not difficult for users to commit the preedit.
I recommend you to see for yourself how korean people input korean.
There is no such commit key or commit action.
In korean input method, preedit text is handled implicitly.
Korean users usually stroke hangul jamo continuously, and the input method
automatically commits preedit text when the syllable is completed.
Korean users may be unaware of the preedit state, and never commit last
preedit
text explicitly. The program should ensure that the input is completed.
This is achieved by reset method.
However I think the reset APIs do not ensure the cursor position as the
specification.
We expect the preedit text is also moved when cursor is moved in Japanese
and Chinese.
This means that committing preedit on reset should be part of the engine
logic.
So this feature have to be selected in engine.
This is why I've suggested IBusPreeditFocusMode.
Under the present condition, async mode, the engine cannot make the preedit
text
commit on reset inside engine. So by using IBusPreeditFocusMode, the engine
can
delegate the client to commit or clear preedit text.
Then engine may commit or not on reset method.
Japanese and chinese engines may ignore reset, and korean engine may commit.
I want to solve this problem in async mode, too.
If possible, the engine may register key filter function or something that
return bool value
for that key event without asking over the process.
Or sync mode can be a last resort.
I think it can be a user preference.
