I have no idea. I think I'd have to ask Eli or Handa.
[ Notice how I carefully phrased the above quoted paragraph such that
it only contains facts I know to be true because of how package.el and
autoloads work: I know nothing about how input methods are registered
and how that might interact with the user's language environment
(and to be honest, I must admit that I don't really know what
is a language environment either). ]

I think we should aim to make it possible without too many contortions
to distribute and install input methods as external packages.

I tend to agree, but I don't think it makes it less important to support
external input methods.
