Just to elaborate this; when Narayam is enabled Captcha and Username should not be affected and the user should be able to type in English as there is no need for Odia for Captcha and Username i.e. when you enable Narayam and type in the Captcha and Username fields you should be able to type in English and not Odia.

This seems to be solved by UniversalLanguageSelector, which adds an icon to select the input method directly from the field: try for instance https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:UserLogin/signup

This seems to be solved by UniversalLanguageSelector, which adds an icon to
select the input method directly from the field:

If I understand correctly, the requirement is to completely disable the input method for the User Registration, Username and Captcha fields. Considering bug #5309, I am moving this bug to UniversalLanguageSelector for further discussion.

You can disable IME for a specific field by adding the "noime" class to the HTML field.

This has to made default. A new user should not be troubled to change the typing scheme for username/password/captcha only.

typing scheme for username/password/captcha only.

You're making two assumptions here:

  1. the captcha/whatever is in English letters,
  2. the user has English keyboard.

(1) is currently valid for Wikimedia's captchas and perhaps of most FancyCaptcha implementations, but not for all captchas and not for usernames and passwords; (2) seems quite wrong.

Perhaps there should be a configuration for ConfirmEdit which can add that noime class to the captcha field in the unfortunate cases when the captcha is English-only (but then, what happens if the user doesn't have English keyboard?).

Captcha field has been blacklisted. Can this bug be considered fixed now?

For a new user in or.*, the default input method is native keyboard now. Unless the user explicitly select an input method, user can type in latin.

Captcha field is blacklisted.
