java version "1.4.2-beta"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2-beta-b19)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2-beta-b19, mixed mode)

(also 1.4.1, 1.3.1, 1.3.0)

1. Setup Japanese input locale (add hotkey for locale)

2. Run testcase
          java Test
  
3. Type "a" then toggle the orientation using ctrl+shift+o, then type "b" and you'll see the text right justified.Toggle the orientation back to the left using ctrl+shift+o.

4. Activate Japanese Hiragana using your hotkey

5. Type "kanji".
   Japanese Hiragana string is shown as a preedit text.
   However, it is located at the next line. <----- *A
   And the cursor is located at the next line of the preedit text. <--- *A
   
7. Press Enter to commit the text.
   Then the committed text is moved to the first line.
   
8. Press Enter again to move the cursor to a new line.

9. Type "kanji".
   Japanese Hiragana is shown as a preedit text.
   However it does not have underline, which means a preedit state. <--- *B

Problem *A: Is this designed behavior? If so the behavior is very different from prior to the orientation toggle.
Problem *B: This looks like a bug. Preedit text should definitely be underlined prior to being commited. Also the behavior differs from *A.

All the commited text is correctly positioned. These problem are with preedit text.
