There's a technical issue here as the resize is done outside of the IME code, which make it harder to notify the IME that a resize has taken place.

There is a new ResizeObserver API in browsers that makes this possible: https://caniuse.com/#search=ResizeObserver which currently has browser support at ~85% (notably not IE11 & Edge before the Chrome switch). This could be done as a progressive enhancement so the bug will just persist in older browsers.
