The current descriptions for *-itrans input methods are what
generated automatically from the corresponding mapping
table, so they may not be sufficient for users. Thank you

tamil-itrans. By the way, isn't it necessary to have a
column for dependent vowels? Or, is to obvious for users
from independent vowels?
