    I see three ways to address this:

1) im-switch is add the current (or requested) locale to /SupportedUnicodeLocales
2) /etc/scim/global to include all locales by default (my least favorite)
3) scim itself to ignore /SupportedUnicodeLocales always attempt to support the current locale

    I'm not very familiar with the architecture of im-switch and scim, and so am unsure of the ancillary effects that might develop as a result of any of these choices. From my quick review, I would suspect that the first is the least intrusive (although not necessarily correct), and would involve parsing (or creating) ~/.scim/global to include the appropriate locale.

    For which of these (if any) should a patch be generated? Alternately, is this more complicated than it looks, and does the patch need to be somewhere else?
