Bug Description
Binary package hint: ibus-qt4
When using IBUS with a QT4 application such as VLC og Konqueror, there's a significant lag before what's being typed appears on the screen, so that inputting text in near-realtime is not possible.
This delay doesn't occur when using IBUS with GTK-based apps – Only QT4 apps seem to be affected.

The delay seems to be introduced by some part of the software involved with holding the composition string before candidate selection.
This can be verified by entering several letters in quick succession, causing the output to be delayed, and then immediately pressing the return key. This will cause the output to appear immediately. In the smart pinyin method, immediately pressing 1 after the input will cause the first candidate to appear immediately.
