Bug#990316: Add GLFW_IM_MODULE=fcitx on ibus and fcitx5 to enable IME in kitty



Package: im-config
Version: 0.46-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

As discussed in https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/issues/469, adding
`GLFW_IM_MODULE=ibus` can enable IBus API connection in kitty terminal,
and thus enabling CJK input in that terminal emulator.

Not only in IBus, fcitx5 populates IBus API so setting the envvar to
`ibus` also works in fcitx5.

However, after some searching I found that the variable looks like
exclusively used in kitty, especially this envvar acts as a toggle in
kitty's source code:

  https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/blob/6179cfc6703af1b0682fdd14829280b8a228c167/glfw/ibus_glfw.c#L286

I am wondering whether it is okay to add that variable into im-config.

Best regards,
Yao Wei
