I once implemented a change that canceled an ongoing composition when the input-element value is changed by JS. But, it caused some site-compatibility problems (especially Google Suggest). (Google Suggest replaces the text with its suggestion when typing a down key or an up key. If we cancel an ongoing composition when the input-element value is changed, it cancels the composition.)
