GTK and Qt applications can switch its IM.
But I think there is no way to do from shell script.

If we implement GTK IM module/Qt IM module/xim proxy, it could do that.

I do not know any opinion to deprecate fcitx.

If some IMFs need it, it should support those environment variable.
For example, ibus-mozc is buggy on Qt 5 application.
So I maybe should set QT5_IM_MODULE=xim
