Indeed.  I added tones to all characters included in the original PY.scm.   
I made it for my practice and maybe there are many errors, but please give  
it a try if you like.  The file size increased to 895Kb but uim-py is  
still working here...

If you don't mind typing "/" between syllables of multisyllabic words:

If you prefer capitalization:
http://www.h4.dion.ne.jp/~apricots/files/Tone-C_PY.scm.tar.bz2

Usage:
qi + Space shows 72 candidates as before.
qi1 + Space shows 17 candidates.
qi2 + Space shows 32 candidates.
etc.

I should have said "I would like to keep my PY.scm simplified only to  
avoid confusion."  Sorry.
