Summary: New scim GUI starts when X-app is launched by another user

Initial Comment:
I have scim running on display as my user.
Root runs some other GUI application and new copy of scim GUI starts and tray has 2 scims.

Once scim runs any other user should reuse the first copy. Only one or zero copies of GUI should be maintained at any time on any particular display.

Message:
Yeah, it's annoying for me too.
What's about adding a new environment variable like "SCIM_USER"?
If it's set as "takeshi", taro's applications won't launch another process
of SCIM,
and try to use the one already launched by takeshi.
Distributors can set this value to prevent launching of another SCIM panel

when users use administrative applications as root in desktop
environments.

I would add: this is true only for GTK apps.
