[SCIM] SCIM on kde does not work with firefox

[Rachel Kronick]

Well, I guess I'd like to avoid having to recompile them. They're 
working pretty well together now, but it's not a very simple solution; 
I'd consider recompiling to be even less simple. In addition, it seems 
like SCIM is conflicting with other apps, too (Thunderbird, I think, is 
one), so having to recompile each time may just be too much trouble.

Where would I put those settings? In the startup scripts for the 
conflicting apps? If so, this is again not a very simple solution. I 
would consider it about the same as the present solution in terms of 
simplicity.

Thanks for all your great work on SCIM, though! It's my favorite Chinese 
input program for Linux by far.
