Setting or Changing a node name using an Asian IME garble the name.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

- What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. On the *left* pane (that shows node structure), select any node.
2. Right-click and choose "Rename Node"
3. Switch to an IME that will enters asian characters.

   For example, try "Japanese - MS IME Standard 2002 Ver 8.1". Make sure
   it enters hiragana or katagana, not alphanumeric characters.

4. Enter some asian text.

- What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The node name should be changed correctly, even it contains asian
characters. Instead the node name is garbled. If I use "copy-and-paste"
method (i.e. bypass IME), the name is set correctly.

- What version are you using? On what operating system?
Keynote NF 1.7.8.1 on Windows XP Pro SP3

- Please provide any additional information below.
Actually this problem shows up with Chinese (Taiwan) IME as well.
Using an Asian IME on the *right* pane is fine, though.

This issue seems to be identical to #166. Could you detail your problem as 
kisolre
did in that issue?
So that I can reproduce it, you should tell me what 'english' keys I must press 
to
obtain certain word in that asian language (please select a word that only uses
normal letters -in english keyboard-- not simbols)

Sorry I didn't include enough details. I will be more specific.

1. Make sure IME "Japanese - MS IME Standard 2002 Ver 8.1" is installed.

2. Right-click the node and select "Rename Node".

3. Press <backspace> key once to delete the old name.

4. Then, make sure the Language Bar says "JP" instead of "EN". You can use 
mouse to change if necessary.

5. After the Language Bar changed to "JP", you may see several icons in that 
bar. You can distinguish by the balloon messages of each icon.

a. One balloon says "Input style"
b. One says "Input Mode" <---- this is what you want
c. One says "Conversion Mode"
d. One says "IME Pad"

Click the "Input Mode" icon. A pop-up menu should show. Click *Hiragana*

4. Now back to the node name change. Type the keys (10 of them)

h i r a g a n a <space> <enter>

The expected, correct result is 平仮名
The actual, wrong result is 붕벉벖 <-- looks like korean (actually, I don't 
know what it is :) )

Hope it helps.

Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit
KeyNote NF v1.7.9.1 BETA 1

I use Simplified Chinese characters and have the exact same problem. I guess 
there are not enough users using Asian scripts and therefore not a lot of 
people reporting this bug.

Issue #166 has been fixed but issue #217 persists therefore they are not the 
same issue.

Greetings from China!
