It is slightly late but I think it is still useful and important
for the Fedora i18n Project to review and check the
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Workstation/Technical_Specification
for i18n support and issues. I believe there is also a draft package list.
We can post any feedback or comments to the Fedora desktop list or
open a ticket on the Workstation WG trac.

#26: proposal: move to using IMEs for ASCII/Latin input
-----------------------+-------------------

= phenomenon =
Currently in Fedora for languages with non-Latin scripts
we normally switch between a xkb layout as an input source
for inputting Latin/ASCII characters and an IME for
inputting native characters.
ibus-kkc and ibus-libpinyin both have Latin ("English") input methods.
I think it is more natural for primary users of these IMEs
to use them by default for Latin character input. So I want to
suggest that for F21 we could default Japanese input to use only the kkc
IME
and Chinese to libpinyin IME, ie no additional keyboard layout source
would be needed. Multilingual users might still need an additional
keyboard layout input source and that is still fine. Other IMEs
might also be extended to support Latin input modes in the future:
initially we could do it for those default IMEs that support it.
For example I am already using ibus-kkc for both Latin and Japanese input
and it works well - I toggle easily between direct and ja input.
Perhaps the only change needed for the current IMEs with Latin mode
might be input mode state caching, ie using the same mode as last time.
