This is not a bug report per se but an offering of an enhancement. It
was suggested that I submit it through this method. If this is not
correct I apologize in advance and ask guidance on the proper
procedures.
I'm appending code for Hawaiian-language pre- and postfix input methods,
which would go in /lisp/leim/quail either as a standalone file or split
between the latin pre- and latin-post files.
Some years ago I signed FSF paperwork.

Thanks, pushed to the master branch. I indeed decided to split your
additions between latin-pre.el and latin-post.el.
