[General comment]
Based on what I've read here over the past few months, it seems reasonable
to suggest that computer input for some languages/writing systems really
needs quite-careful consideration; keyboarding European languages seems
relatively easy compared to, say, Tamil, Chinese, or Thai. It looks to me,
just now, as though each language merits considerable design effort,
respect for the wishes of those who will use the input method, and good
testing.
A year ago, I would have thought that good input methods would be more
similar, across languages and writing systems, than now seems to be the
case.
However, these are all remarks of a dilettante. (^_^) (Using the Asian
smilie, of course.)

I had a look, and also a look at the page source code. (Surely looks like
some C language, there!)
Imho, a very nice piece of work, and the amount of time you have spent on
it is very far from trivial. Doesn't seem at all bloated, either.
It was a quick look, but there do seem to be a few items as comments in
the source that some users might like to know; maybe you have provided
those, elsewhere.

You're a kindly person.
