      Description

        Issue:
        Java's Native IM status window is not displayed even if it's there.
        Because of this issue, user cannot get proper visual feedback during key
        input operation.
        We found this issue on Tiger VNC.

        Reason:
        Java may pick up unexpected visual for Java's Native IM status window
        when Xserver supports multiple visual.

        Workaround:
        X11 default visual can be changed by FORCEDEFVIS environment variable,
        but it's not easy to find out default visual id.

        I used kinput2 XIM server to take screen shot.
