You should distinguish underlining mechanism between XIM and im-modules.

With im-modules, string inputted by uim is directly passed to GUI library (GTK+
or Qt) with UTF-8 encode.  So it doesn't matter wether application is working
with UTF-8 locale or legacy locale.

With XIM, string inputted by uim is transfered with CompoundText into Xlib, and
Xlib convert this text to multibyte string and pass it to XIM client
application.  So if user uses clients with legacy encoding, only restricted
characters can be available.
