I think this is a good feature for korean users. Many korean users want to
change already inputed text to hanja(kanji) and surrounding text can
solve this problem.

Imhangul(GTK2 input module only for korean) already implements this
feature.
If you want to test, follow this instruction:
download http://kldp.net/download.php/1443/imhangul-0.9.11.tar.bz2
untar
./configure
make
make install
export GTK_IM_MODULE=hangul2 or select it on input context menu
press shift-space
press rhkstpdmaqhtkf
move cursor to the left by pressing left arrow key twice
then press F9, you will see candidate list(hanja)
or move cursor any other position and press f9, you will also
candidate list.
