Hello,

As some people aware, we have a problem with Japanese text input into
Squeak on X11, especially with NuScratch.

I've been punting to work on this but now Manabu Sugiura volunteered
and I decided to just do what it takes to help him.

I wrote some code to support Japanese text input works on X11 when
OLPC XO time, but things diverged since then.  My understanding is
that porting the code from that branch into the later branch(es), most
notably the VM that NuScratch uses; But I am pretty sure there are
more differences I am not aware of.  Please let us know if there are
some foreseeable issues.  And please consider incorporating patches
Manabu (and I) will produce when it is ready.

Thanks!
