Description

I'm integrating codejar with my personal website, a Vietnamese blog. I use ibus-unikey, on Ubuntu, to input Vietnamese, and encounter an issue that, very often, uncommited chars are lost.

I found that codejar is relying on event.isComposing to detect if the IME is in its task. But actually, it is not reliable. You can read more here: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-editing-tf/2015Nov/0001.html

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the use of compositionstart, compositionupdate, compositionend events instead of relying on event.isComposing. Check the linked W3C discussion for alternative approaches.
