For the case that web pages want to *disable* IME may be covered by
other input form validation or HTML inputmode attribute, but is there
any good alternative to explicitly *enable* IME?

For example, a form has your email address and your name fields,
IME should be turned off for email and turned on for name.

One automatic mode change can save huge amount in total considering
the number of IME users, instead of imposing users on obvious and
tedious manual mode change on users.
