It seems clear now that im-cedilla was merely a hack
to workaround the lack of X compose support in gtk-im-context-simple,
which is provided through im-xim.so. Using im-xim.so
should give us consistent keyboard input for all locales
across X, GTK, and Qt applications which is a big usability plus
for users dependent on X compose for writing their language.
I can only repeat my position on this:
We need a single input method framework and we need to tighly integrate it with
keyboard layout configuration and the rest of the desktop. Tagging input method
support onto desktops 'from the side' and trying to make it both
'desktop-neutral' and 'im-framework-neutral' is always going to provide
an
insufficient user experience.
