Again just talking about my experience with Chinese, but the IME guessing quality has really improved markedly over the last decade.
In fact, you can often just type initials for your entire sentence and the IME will guess correctly all the way through. It's like being able to type 'w a y u t?' and getting 'What are you up to?' filled in for you.
I'm pretty sure Chinese is even more homophonic than Japanese, which is why I'd expect the Kanji inference to work better.
