--- Comment #3 from Travis Leithead [MSFT] <travil@microsoft.com> ---
>From one of our Windows Developers (Brendan):

There’s no standard Windows API to obtain the value of an offline composition
string (Cicero knows nothing about it); I’ve seen extremely hacky code samples
for known Windows IMEs in the IMM32-era, but there’s no chance we could get
that to work for 3rd party IMEs.  Due to Windows platform/ecosystem limitations
I think we’d rather keep this. Or we have to define what the values of ‘null’
vs. ‘empty string’ are if we want to do it purely based on compositionText.
