This is something that I want to work, but I'm afraid I have no
experience using IMEs, so I'm not sure what needs doing, which is why
the section [1] in the User's Guide is currently empty. I hope you can
help me with identifying what that needs to say!
I believe it should possible to start your IME (ibus, scim, etc.) in the
remote sessions and have that work.
Alternatively, there was some work done a while ago to provide a bridge
between the native Windows IME and the server, which I believe allowed
using the native Windows IME to input into X windows. If that is
useful, I can probably bring that up to date.
