FWIW, sometimes I wish Emacs was a little more explicit about changing input methods, even more so now that transient input methods are a thing. Sometimes, I find myself in an odd state of using an input method when I activate "compose" transiently (I have it bound to M-m): this could just be my buggy command though. The message "Loading ..." helps but not when you switch the second time. The mode-line indicator is not a great solution when the indicator is a single letter (I use a proportional font for the mode-line).
