      From the current spec "Not all platforms ... support input methods."

      The InputContext APIs need to specify their behavior in this case.
      I believe the following APIs are affected:

      selectInputMethod(Locale): suggest add
      "If a platform does not support input methods, then false will always be returned."

      dispatchEvent(AWTEvent): suggest add
      "If a platform does not support input methods, then the event will never
      be consumed."

      endComposition()
      setCharacterSubsets()
      dispose(), suggest the following;
      "If a platform does not support input methods, then the above methods have no effect."

      getInputMethodControlObject(), suggest the following:
      "If a platform does not support input methods, then null is returned.
