They should.  But note that those modes could enter recursive-edit in
the minibuffer or elsewhere, and let users edit parts of the display,
in which case we do want the IME back on.

Thanks.  I understand that, if single-key input is expected, we are
talking about some intermediate hidden buffer, used to compare what
the IME produces with what was there before, and emit synthetic
keystrokes, is that right?
