Peer component such as TextField's enableInputMethods does not work properly,
which means they don't work as described in apidoc.

---- java.awt.Component API doc ----

- enableInputMethods

public void enableInputMethods(boolean enable)

     Enables or disables input method support or this component. If input method
     support is enabled, incoming events are offered to the current input method and
     will only be processed by the component or dispatched to its listeners if the
     input method does not consume them. By default, input method support is
                                         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
     disabled.
     ^^^^^^^^^

     Parameters:
         enable - true to enable, false to disable.

According to apidoc, following tf1 and tf2 are non-client and tf3 is
passive client.

---
TextField tf1 = new TextField();// supposed to be non-client
TextField tf2 = new TextField();
TextField tf3 = new TextField();

tf2.enableInputMethods(false); // supposed to be non-client
tf3.enableInputMethods(true); // supposed to be passive client

---

But the result was different.

field can use IM preedit style status style NOTE
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tf1(WIN32) yes overTheSpot Root(native) passive-client, same behavior as JDK1.1
tf1(Solaris) yes overTheSpot ImDisplaysInClient(native) passive-client, same behavior as JDK1.1
tf2(WIN32) no N/A N/A non-client
tf2(Solaris) yes ovetTheSpot ImDisplaysInClient(native) passive-client, same as tf1(Solaris)
tf3(WIN32) yes overTheSpot Root(native) passive-client, same as tf1(WIN32)
tf3(Solaris) yes N/A Root(IMF?) passsive, but client can't get nor display composed text.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

tf1 and tf2 should be non-client but they can use IM on Solaris, and
their behavior is different on Windows.

tf3 should be passive-client but it does not work on Solaris platform.
