vscode is fine with my IME as are the Electron (and webapps) I work on.
So it is just Slack doing something unusual.

An Electron app is a nodejs process bundled and working in concert with 
an Chromium renderer process. It is for cross-platform development, 
where the UI toolkit is HTML5.

It isn't "locked into" a website. Though I suppose you could build a 
browser with Electron, and hard-code a single URL if locking-in was your 
goal.

But, yeah, if your IME setup won't even work with Chrome, then I guess 
Electron apps are going to struggle too. :-)
