Certainly, there is already an immodule for qt but as you say one has to 
recompile all the programs that depends on qt, which means ALL KDE, :o

In the site, it says that the immodule patch won't be released for Qt 
3.3.x due some Trolltech bugfix-only policy. They say that support for 
immodule will be included in Qt 4.

I'm using sarge with selfcompiled scim 0.95 and skim 0.94. It works like 
a charm.
