Yes, I understand that. And also GTK IM mode has its own limitations. I actually use XIM mode even in GTK programs. :-) > But given that "toggled off" is really the same as toggled on using the > "English/European" IME (and I would just always use that, if it wasn't > for the panel window that I find annoying; I'd like to be able to > suppress it and just use the tray icon for status display and > configuration...) Then I think you would be very happy to know that scim 1.4.4-1 (currently in unstable) has exactly this new feature. Just right click the systray icon and choose "Hide panel". > - I don't think it should be too difficult to make > this work for XIM mode as well; at the moment, it's a bug, really... Sure, I agree this is a bug, and I treat bugs that only happen in XIM mode very seriously (as I said, I use XIM mode myself). But this is probably harder to fix than you thought, since XIM is known to have a lot of limitation and corner case bugs. We will see.
