IBus 1.5.19 will have two features.

# Move the input entry on IBus emoji dialog to the input entry on each
application using IBus pre-edit text so that the focus event is not
changed when the emoji typing is enabled# Ctrl-Shift-u feature of
typing Unicode code points is separated from Ctrl-Shift-e feature so
that neither an additional dialog or popup window is needed.

# Typing compose keys will have a pre-edit text



== Detailed description ==
Currently Ctrl-Shift-e launches an IBus emoji dialog and users type
emoji annotations in an input entry on the dialog and the input entry
can convert the muti-byte annotation to an emoji character, besides
ASCII annotation. However the dialog takes the current input focus in
any desktop environments and also the dialog position cannot
determined in Wayland because the dialog has no parent windows.
IBus 1.5.19 will move the input entry on the emoji dialog to the
current input context on each applications using IBus pre-edit
feature. Users type emoji annotations on the pre-edit text after they
type Ctrl-Shift-e and typing space key launches a lookup window to
show emoji candidates.
Currently Ctrl-Shift-u feature of typing Unicode code point is
consolidated in the emoji dialog because one shortcut key of
Ctrl-Shift-e can cover the feature but the code point feature would
not need to launch the dialog because the candidate character is only
one so IBus 1.5.19 will separate the Ctrl-Shift-u feature from
Ctrl-Shift-e one and both keybindings can be customizable with
ibus-setup.
Currently IBus compose feature does not show anything until the output
character is determined. IBus 1.5.9 will shows the pre-edit text
during users compose a sequence.
E.g. Multi_key-apostrophe-e outputs 'é' and shows the apostrophe as a
character on the pre-edit until 'e' is typed.


== Scope ==

* Proposal owners:
IBusEngine class will be changed in ibus-libs package to handle
Ctrl-Shift-e and Ctrl-Shift-u and it will effects all IBus engines.
