    \class QInputContext
    \brief The QInputContext class abstracts the input method dependent data and composing state.

    \ingroup i18n

    An input method is responsible for inputting complex text that cannot
    be inputted via simple keymap. It converts a sequence of input
    events (typically key events) into a text string through the input
    method specific converting process. The class of the processes are
    widely ranging from simple finite state machine to complex text
    translator that pools a whole paragraph of a text with text
    editing capability to perform grammar and semantic analysis.

    To abstract such different input method specific intermediate
    information, Qt offers the QInputContext as base class. The
    concept is well known as 'input context' in the input method
    domain. An input context is created for a text widget in response
    to a demand. It is ensured that an input context is prepared for
    an input method before input to a text widget.

    Multiple input contexts that belong to a single input method
    may concurrently coexist. Suppose multi-window text editor. Each
    text widget of window A and B holds different QInputContext
    instance which contains different state information such as
    partially composed text.

    context can send InputMethodCompose or InputMethodEnd event safely
    if this function returned true.

    The state is automatically being tracked through sendEvent().

    \sa sendEvent()
*/

/*!
    This function can be reimplemented in a subclass to filter input
    events.

    Return true if the \a event has been consumed. Otherwise, the
    unfiltered \a event will be forwarded to widgets as ordinary
    way. Although the input events have accept() and ignore()
    methods, leave it untouched.

    \a event is currently restricted to events of these types:

    \list
        \i CloseSoftwareInputPanel
        \i KeyPress
        \i KeyRelease
        \i MouseButtonDblClick
        \i MouseButtonPress
        \i MouseButtonRelease
        \i MouseMove
        \i RequestSoftwareInputPanel
    \endlist

    But some input method related events such as QWheelEvent or
    QTabletEvent may be added in future.

    The filtering opportunity is always given to the input context as
    soon as possible. It has to be taken place before any other key
    event consumers such as eventfilters and accelerators because some
    input methods require quite various key combination and
    sequences. It often conflicts with accelerators and so on, so we
    must give the input context the filtering opportunity first to
    ensure all input methods work properly regardless of application
    design.

    Ordinary input methods require discrete key events to work
    properly, so Qt's key compression is always disabled for any input
    contexts.

  Sends an input method event specified by \a event to the current focus
  widget. Implementations of QInputContext should call this method to
  send the generated input method events and not
  QApplication::sendEvent(), as the events might have to get dispatched
  to a different application on some platforms.

  Some complex input methods route the handling to several child
  contexts (e.g. to enable language switching). To account for this,
  QInputContext will check if the parent object is a QInputContext. If
  yes, it will call the parents sendEvent() implementation instead of
  sending the event directly.

    selection.

    The \a x parameter is the offset within the string that was sent
    with the InputMethodCompose event. The alteration boundary of \a
    x is ensured as character boundary of preedit string accurately.

    widget. The event type is QEvent::MouseButtonPress,

    Default implementation is sufficient for simple input method. You
    can override this function to reset external input method engines
    in complex input method. In the case, call QInputContext::reset()
    to ensure proper termination of inputting.

    You must not send any QInputMethodEvent except empty InputMethodEnd event using

    consistent with QInputContextPlugin::keys(). The name has to
    consist of ASCII characters only.

    There are two different names with different responsibility in the
    input method domain. This function returns one of them. Another

    of the input context. If the input context can handle multiple
    languages, return the currently used one. The name has to be
    consistent with QInputContextPlugin::language().

    This information will be used by language tagging feature in
    QInputMethodEvent. It is required to distinguish unified han characters
    correctly. It enables proper font and character code
