Maybe I understand what you are saying. You saw the problem as "SCIM
(or something other softwares) shouldn't know uim's private data
structure, and so on." Is my guess right?

The problem here is not data structure (I think). Yusuke's belief is "We
shouldn't assume each IM has on/off state. Maybe such state exist, but
it should be treated as private data and be changed from outside." His
main opinion is about treatment of private data, not how to export
private data to outside.


Personally, I'm thinking that maybe we should treat this state as
public. (Now I cannot draw a conclusion.)
