Hello Krisna,
We have decided to make the Fedora ibus defaults behave exactly like
Windows IME in order to match the majority end-user expectations. This
means we will not ship with legacy default hotkeys in cases where they
conflict like Shift-Space. Users may configure it that way in options
if they desire non-default hotkeys and behaviors. I have bought a
Korean USB keyboard so I can test Korean input with both US and KO layouts.
I hope for your comment on the following.
1) BTW, where did F9 as Hanja conversion button come from? This seems
like another legacy that conflicts with unrelated software. Windows and
Mac do not have F9 as Hanja by default. Perhaps this is because all
modern Korean keyboards have a Hanja button, making the legacy F9 obsolete?

Here is the current proposal for ~6-month ideal IM behavior, and the
compromise behavior for Fedora 11. Fedora 11 development freeze is one
week from now. I really need people to respond to this proposal.

ibus-hangul missing right-Alt or Hangul Han/En mode
How difficult might it be to implement this for ibus-hangul, so it
behaves equivalently to Windows Hangul? Currently it is especially
unfriendly to use ibus-hangul with a US keyboard layout because we lack
Han/En mode switching.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=491042
We especially need ibus-hangul to handle Han/En mode switching because
we cannot define right-Alt as a default global trigger, as it would be
too disruptive to non-Korean users.
Do you agree? I really hope for your help to add this to ibus-hangul,
because without this ibus-hangul is not usable with US keyboard.

ibus-hangul should default to vertical candidate selection
phuang says the next build will do vertical candidate selection
automatically for both ko and ja.

[PATCH] ibus-hangul Hanja arrow keys are wrong
I think this patch is reasonably correct, especially with ko vertical
candidate selection.

[PATCH] ibus-hangul missing right Ctrl for Hanja button
I know you mentioned that some Korean users don't want this. My testing
however has found this to be default in Windows/Mac even with Korean
layout keyboard. I think this should be default because US keyboard
users expect it. You should add an option to ibus-hangul to turn it off
if you think it is important that some users really don't want it. Do
you agree?

ibus-hangul can cause gtk app to lockup
Very nasty bug hangul specific. phuang said he fixed this upstream but
I am waiting for new builds to test it.
