We tried to workaround it in Fcitx by recommending GTK2 IM Module in
the GTK3 package, and do the inverse in the GTK2 package. In this
case, users are very probably getting both IM Modules installed at the
same time, so they can avoid weird misbehavior of installing only one
of the two.
To answer your question ultimately, we need to have two things fixed in GTK3:
1.Add a GTK3_IM_MODULE variable.
2.Better fallback handling when GTK_IM_MODULE is set but the the
specified IM Module does not work or isn't present. It is expected to
fallback to XIM when this happens, but currently the fallback does not
work at all.
