uim is a great system, but I have a wishlist for 0.4.6:
-- there should be user-level documentation, explaining clearly
how to install and use the system.
-- uim-xim should work in all UTF-8 locales, not only in
ja_JP.UTF-8.
-- in 直接入力 mode, for entering characters with dead keys,
AltGr, and Compose, the whole UTF-8 compose table should be
supported (not only the Latin-1 characters).
-- the systray widget should always show the state of the input
system. At the moment it does not always do this (e.g. with
Russian: Russian-on and Russian-off look exactly the same).
-- it should be possible to disable "shift-space". Users often hit
these keys by mistake. It may be better if you can switch input
methods only by clicking on the widget.
Then we could just use uim, with all its advantages, without
having to use scim. I do not know (not being a programmer) if this
is possible.
