Hi Kazuki,

Thanks for your work. I meant to be in charge of this kind of issue,
but glad to hear that you are willing to do it ;)

I think you can have a look at Gtk2, it has a full-functional
table-based simple input context gtk-immodule, I think you can find
all the tables there.

This link describes the deadkeys issue,:

AFAIK, if the user's keyboard is set to be one of those layout which
needs "dead keys", then a single ^ won't generate anything: if the
user wants a real ^, he can just hit it twice.
