Summary: ibus Enable IM engine for particular language automatically
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=491043
Summary: ibus Enable IM engine for particular language
automatically
Product: Fedora
Version: 10
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: medium
Priority: low
Component: ibus
AssignedTo: phuang(a)redhat.com
ReportedBy: wtogami(a)redhat.com
QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: phuang(a)redhat.com, fedora-i18n-bugs(a)redhat.com
Blocks: 446452,481098
Estimated Hours: 0.0
Classification: Fedora
Target Release: ---
If you login to a desktop with a particular language like Japanese, it should
automatically enable that ibus engine. The user shouldn't be required to
manually go into the ibus Preferences and enable the engine.
Perhaps ibus engines should register with ibus a mapping table of language
codes to preferred engine. This means:
* If the user runs ibus as LANG=ja_JP, then activate ibus-anthy.
* If the user runs ibus as LANG=ko_KR, then activate ibus-hangul.
* (Many other languages, you pretty much expect the user will want a particular
engine or table. Enable it automatically.)
* (Some languages are less certain because there are multiple engines or tables
for that language. In that case it should pick the most common one. This
isn't too bad for users who need something else, because they would have done
to manually configure it anyway.)

Ibus supports it.
Please install latest ibus in rawhide, and try to create a new user and login
with ja or ko locale. If it does not work, please tell me.

That is true only of the first login. I am talking about logins after the
first.
Core to this issue, if a user logs in to a Japanese desktop, they would expect
Japanese IM to work. If they login to Korean, they would expect Korean IM to
work. All other reasons not to do this are unimportant.
There are complications sure, like what if there are multiple engines for that
language? In that case enable only one that is the most preferred for that
language.
Sure "most preferred" for Chinese this is less clear. But for nearly every
other language the expectation is clear.

During some discussion one idea that came up was to have a "Use default input
method" checkbox above the IME selector in ibus-setup.

I am removing this from the Blocker list since I think we agreed it is not so
important: might still be good to do something to improve this.

Proposed Behavior
* "Use automatic engine selection" checkbox enabled by default. This makes
ibus always run the preferred engine for the desktop language.
* If unchecked, then it always uses whatever is defined by the user in the
Preferences, no matter what the desktop language is.

Warren do you think we really still need this?
I am pretty happy now with the current UI.

I think this option will confuse normal users. Most users just use one locale.
Even if some users will use two or three locales, most of them also wish the
enabled engines be constant. So I would like close this bug as wontfix.
