Sure: 1. Switch to anthy input 2. Hit a-i-s-u-r-a-n-d-o-j-i. This produces: あいすらんどじ 3. Hit þ-æ-ö. It might not be limited to ascii/non-ascii, but so far all extra-ascii characters I've tried have the same effect, e.g. ł, ĸ, and ç. This produces: þæöあいすらんどじ * Hitting space to get the candidates and enter to commit them gives: þæöアイスランド字 * Hitting backspace deletes the last character entered into the pre-edit, giving: þæöあいすらんど > Also, does this happen with GTK+ applications > too? or specific with XIM? Arg! I felt sure I'd experienced this the same all over. No, this particular behaviour seems to be specific to XIM. But before someone lets out a sigh of relief, both GTK and Qt applications have their own odd, distinct behaviour: GTK: 1. Switch to anthy input 2. Hit a-i-s-u-r-a-n-d-o-j-i. This produces: あいすらんどじ 3. Hit þ-æ-ö. This replaces the entire pre-edit with the last non-ascii character (one at a time). * Continuing as though one had never entered the non-ascii characters works as normal. The input method takes no notice of them. * Backspace, however, deletes from the pre-edit the same as in XIM. Qt: 1. Switch to anthy input 2. Hit a-i-s-u-r-a-n-d-o-j-i. This produces: あいすらんどじ 3. Hit þ-æ-ö. This appends the characters to the pre-edit, producing: あいすらんどじþæö * Hitting space to get the candidates throws the non-ascii characters over to the front of the pre-edit, giving the same result as in XIM: þæöアイスランド字 * Hitting backspace deletes only from the pre-edit, as in XIM. > > I'm running 1.5.6.

After I didn't find any mention of this in the mailing list or release notes, I figured this hadn't even been noticed yet. I can upgrade if you think it will change anything, but now I have to be off to buy some Christmas gifts.
