That's a tough one - Switching the input method does not switch the
input method - with xkb:il::heb if i type `a' i expect `ש' to be
produced but I still get an `a'

Yes. I tried --without-xinput2 build with configured features FREETYPE
GMP JSON LIBXML2 NOTIFY INOTIFY PDUMPER SECCOMP X11 XFT XIM LUCID, and
switching the input methods to xkb input methods work there.

I can file a bug report if you let me know
