Could you please elaborate on why this behavior is desired?

While intermediate text is different from final form for certain input methods, it's not always the case. Users of other input methods will expect the page to react to input immediately.

I understand the use case of input event for IME intermediate text. Input events from IME intermediate text are very useful for implementing suggestion feature and others.

Thanks for response as usual!
