Port patch proposal

I've read the patch and it seems ok. However, I'm not sure that we should
enable it by default, because for most users it is not useful. Because we can't
have an input method running with slim, for the users who require an input
method to input non-ascii characters in their languages, this is also not
useful.
For the patch itself, I'm not sure why it uses char uint16_t* instead of
wstring. The logic seems ok, although I'm not sure whether it would introduce
security or reliability problems.
I think that we can create an option for this patch, and disable it by default.
What do you think?
