An IME is something you want, consistently, on every page you visit. You don't want every webpage to have a different, inconsistent IME, to have to configure IMEs on each page, etc. OS's without a needed IME installed are an issue, but implementing it in each webpage isn't the right fix. -- Glenn Maynard
