Porting imsettings?

Sorry I don't know where should I post this so I post here...

IMSettings is a framework that delivers Input Method settings and applies the changes immediately. So it will takes an effect without restarting applications and the desktop.

I used it all the time in Fedora and it works perfectly. But I found that FreeBSD doesn't have this, so... Does anybody want to port it? (or with im-chooser together? :)
 
I am using ibus-daemon with a couple of different input methods.
What can IMSettings do, that ibus-daemon can't do?

IMSettings is a framework that switches and manages input method frameworks. For example I've install fcitx and ibus. (FreeBSD doesn't have fcitx 4.2.5, but I need fcitx-anthy which are included in 4.2.5) If I want to switch to the other one I must edit the conf file and re-login to take effects.

For IMSettings, I just run a command or use im-chooser (Fedora has this, it's very easy-to-use). No logging out and no conf files.
