It's never been pressing for me personally because the GUI's
input
method works fine for me, and usually search-forward or
re-search-forward is just as efficient (Japanese input by character
is very inefficient, it's much more efficient by word). If Aidan
doesn't have something, maybe I'll take a look at it in a couple of
weeks (I need to work on moving our web services off of the current
host first, though).
There are a couple of inconvenience with the GUI solution (some of them
are based on my personal preferences)
- the US ascii keyboard is "hard-wired" into my brain which makes a
Spanish or German GUI keyboard difficult to use for me.
- the US-international layout is much better, however typing "s
does not give ß but I have to bind it to alt-gr s. Moreover ' and
` are dead keys but I need them in auctex.
- if I use hebrew[1] all control keys combination do not work!
BTW iso-accents mode seems to me a bit faster than the quail latin-1-pre
method, I wonder why.

Footnotes:
[1] since Xemacs does not have real bidi support I rarely do this. Jeff
gtk xemacs provides it but is still to buggy for me to use. However
I hope to have time to install never GTK version and try at least
to give him feedback.
