Re: proposal: add input/keyboard locale to text and keyboard events

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-i18n-core/2010JulSep/0092.html

So does the inputModeLocale (or whatever to call it) really need to be
in the events?
Could for example navigator object have .currentInputModeLocale.
With that a text processor could try to guess the default language even
before user starts to type and show that to user.

During the events dispatched because of speech input for example,
currentInputModeLocale would point to the "currentInputModeLocale",
which is the locale for speech. Same with keyboards.
So the main difference would be just that the default locale would be
available even before any input has happened.
