    As Peter wrote, there's no way to make it work 100% with the
    current implementation of quail.  We have to change internal
    structure/code of quail somehow.

It is not out of the question to change the code of quail, or even its
internal structure.  Whether it is worth while to do so in this case
depends on details, such as how much benefit users would receive, and
on whether someone is willing to do the work.
