I have thought about that, and tend to disagree. Even if the GNOME devs
ignore non-IBus IM frameworks, that's not enough of a reason to bury the
idea with providing a tool to help IM users, who want options, with the
configuration.
Currently, if you use GNOME on Wayland, you need to uninstall (or
fake-uninstall) IBus to be able to use im-config for non-IBus
frameworks. That's a rather cumbersome prerequisite.
I have submitted a merge request which I think improves it a bit:

With the proposed change in place, you can use im-config to set the
variables also on GNOME on Wayland. The daemon isn't launched, though;
you need to do that manually.
