Win10 Vim disable IME on startup

[Wang Xavier]

Hello,

I have meet a issue on Windows 10. (maybe has same issue on Window 8.1+).

In these system, I have set IME to Chinese input by default, because
the America Keyboard input method can not set into Chinese language.

So everytime I open Vim, I should press Win+Space to disable IME to
use Vim. I have found a option 'imdisable', but even I set this, when
start Vim, the first time the IME is still remaining open.

Now the scene is. open gVim, it's in normal mode, but IME is open,
press i<CR> to input a i in IME mode, press <ESC>, it return to normal
mode, and IME is closed.

I think it should have a patch that after startup, check the IME
status, and if it's open, close it, because after the startup Vim stay
in normal mode.

FYI, You can do it with put below into your vimrc.

set iminsert=0
set imsearch=0

And if you want to start insert with non-active mode for IME always:

map <silent> <ESC> <ESC>:set iminsert=0<CR>

However, I wonder how many users want to start insert with active-mode for IME.
At least, japanese doesn't. Most japanese users has this configuration in them vimrc.

Anyone know which users want this behavior? If not, I want to change this behavior as to start insert with non-active mode for IME.

Sorry for my bad English, but I mean, the IME is *open* when Vim is in
*normal mode*!!

that means, if I want in insert mode, or delete a word, or do any
normal mode command, I should do it after IME, I think this is clearly
a bug.

1. start Vim
2. you are in normal mode with IME *open*.
3. try go to another mode and return to normal mode.
4. IME is closed as expected.

I think we need a patch to close IME on the first normal mode.
