e.g. with scim and scim-sinhala under gnome...

ctrl+space to active and type kRoo, this is a particularly nasty sequence, and
the IM will eventually call our 
GtkSalFrame::IMHandler::signalIMRetrieveSurrounding in an effort to know what to
do, we don't implement this, so it plays it safe. But e.g. gedit can give the
desired feedback and the correct sequence.

Attached is a (hilarious) patch which uses the ATK interface to get the desired
surrounding text and make get the right output. Hopefully there is a less silly
way to do this, though it does work :-)
