Perhaps if the current locale is en_US (and other en variants, since
many use the US layout and have little need for input methods), then C-\
should not automatically select an input method the first time it is
hit. Then the user will be prompted and can hit C-g. This will overcome
the problem that if it is hit by accident by someone who knows nothing
about input methods, they have no way of knowing what has gone wrong.
