That's good to know. I just tried this out with both vim and gvim
started from a kterm with LANG=ja_JP ... there is evidence of Japanese 
support in both versions (in console vim, the initial welcome screen is 
in Japanese, and gvim comes up with a Japanese menu), and kinput2 seems
to work properly ... but the resulting text is blank in console vim, and
mojibake in gvim. Any idea why? Might it be my font settings?
