I've googled a little bit and found some old threads in the list, but no 
one of them answered my question:

http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2005-June/000493.html

http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-users/2005-December/000266.html

It seems that the code which drives popping-up window (with 
"cut/copy/paste/input method/language/tools" menu, <Enter> & <Tab> keys 
and so on) is closed and nobody knows how to hack it and replace with 
custom one.

Is that true?

If yes, is there any way to implement similar behavior with custom input 
method (i.e. resize "main window" and get create canvas where IM code 
can draw something)?
