But with that said, I don't think it makes sense to spam the
users' environment with duplicate variables. Upstream already makes
use of the well established XMODIFIERS variable, and by parsing its
value they would know whether fcitx(5) is used or not. So we may
want to propose that to upstream rather than adding a new
application specific variable.
1. I thought XMODIFIERS is for XIM (X Input Method). Not sure why
sdl2 checks XMODIFIERS as well.
2. Changing sdl2 upstream takes too long to propagate. SDL_IM_MODULE
appeared in sdl2 since 2016

User asks for this for Dota2 game, which seems hard to get sdl2
updated...
Ok, I rest my case. :)
As far as I'm concerned, please feel free to push the change to the repo.
