Created attachment 230249 [details]
on-line input by IME is not available about incremental search field

Description:
in-line input by IME is not available on incremental search field.

OS: Mac OS X 10.8.3 Japanese UI and region
Orion: https://orion.eclipse.org (as of 29th April 2013)
Web browser: Safari 6.0.4, Firefox ESR 17, Chrome 26

Steps to recreate problem:
1- create a file on Orion navigator
2- Input DBCS characters in the file
3- click cmd+J for activating incremental search
4- input the same DBCS characters using IME for incremental search

Expected:
DBCS characters which are in the middle of input using IME are displayed on an incremental search field (this is called as "in-line input")

Actual:
DBCS characters are displayed at the place where a cursor exists on an editor view. (Please see the attached screenshot)
After the input is settled on IME by user, the DBCS characters comes to be displayed on incremental search field. 

I tested this on Mac, but it seems the same problem exists on browsers on Windows 7 and probably on other platforms as well.

Any uncommitted input from the IME goes into the div the has focus. Focus is in the editor div during incremental search.   The string in the top/right is just showing status.     Until the input is not committed by the user, we cannot display the search string in the status area.

There is nothing we can do about this. Closing as WONTFIX.
