Problem with Japanese Romaji Input in Search Field

[Chronos2500]

When using the Japanese Romaji input keyboard, the input gets finalized as plain alphabet characters before it is converted into Japanese characters (hiragana or kanji). This issue makes it impossible to enter Japanese text in the search field correctly.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the app and navigate to the search field.
2. Switch the keyboard to the Japanese Romaji input method.
3. Attempt to type Japanese words.

Expected behavior:
The input should remain in editable form until the user selects the correct conversion (e.g., hiragana or kanji).

Actual behavior:
The input is prematurely finalized as alphabet characters, making proper Japanese input impossible.
