(The sentence above is "Can I use Japanese here?" in Japanese)

 To describe concreate problems, using Japanese is OK. But to discuss,
you should use English. Of course if you send me a mail personally, I
prefer Japanese to English ;-)

 Such solution has some problems, I think. Fisrt, immodule can't connect
to signal directly, because it doesn't know the wiget which using the
immodule. Second, solution must be able to bypass ordinary key event
order.

I think we should create new function such like "filter_key_pre_press",
and GtkWindow or something toplevel widget should call the function
before usual key event signal emission.
