the MS-IME for Japanese seems to support unconversion. (when some text is highlighted and the conversion key is hit, the text is returned to candidate selection mode.)
Ive looked into the Canna conversion server, it doesnt seem to support any unconversion of kanji characters. I dont know if any other popular conversion servers support this either, or if its only implemented inside MS's IME. Does anyone know offhand of a conversion server which can give alternate candidates for arbitrary text (not just kana syllables)?
Assuming that unconversion support was available, I have a feeling that common gtk+ applications wouldnt necessarily be able to support it. When a text selection is made, the highlighted text would have to be turned into a conversion candidate and passed to the im...
Does anyone think that "unconversion" support is worthwhile/implementable?
