Last time I tried ibus on Fedora, I was not happy with either of these.
ibus-table-thai dumbly maps keys to characters, without any
sequence validation, while ibus-m17n relies on preedit mode,
which is totally not belong for Thai.

Fortunately, surrounding text support has been added to ibus for
some time. [1] This enables development of context-sensitive
validating input method, just like what gtk-im-libthai currently does.
Problem is I can't find a time slot to do it yet.

Meanwhile, ibus-table-thai should be fine. Or if the surrounding
text API has been deployed by ibus-m17n, that would be nice.
