| An input method adapter interfaces with the native input methods
on a host platform. In general, it looks to the input method
framework like a Java input method (that may support a few more
locales than a typical Java input method). However, since it
often has to work in a slightly hostile environment that's not
designed for easy integration into the Java input method
framework, it gets some special treatment that's not available
to Java input methods.
