Hi
I have implemented a small prototype Chrome extension related to this project. It is a simple browser extension (currently for Google Chrome only), that provides multilingual input support on any webpage.
Source code and installation instructions can be found at: https://github.com/pravee-n/prototype.jquery.ime
Currently only a few languages are supported. You can try Hindi ( हिन्दी ), Greek and a few other languages.
Looking forward to some feedback and suggestions.
Regards,
Praveen Singh

Hi Oren,
Thanks for the feedback.
If I have got your point correctly, then the browser extensions would not impact or slow down the page loading.
My project scope does include on demand loading of the input methods, but I am not very sure how to go about integrating Resource Loader with the browser extensions. As far as I know, Resource Loader can only be used on MediaWiki enabled websites whereas the project aims at providing these input methods on any website.
Let me know what you think of it.
Regards, Praveen Singh

Interesting proposal.
I would imagine that this does not impact most page-views since Js files are cached.
It might be better to fix this bug by a tighter integration of the JavaScript with the Resource loader to lazy load the required elements as needed
In such a case the solution would be less dependent on browser plugins and Would require less long term maintenance when the Js is updated
