Hi, I think it's not bug. Since in CJK characters have wide space. Usually two Latin letter have the same spaces with one CJK character. You can select the "Wide Latin" in input tools menu. The following is my assumption, need hsumita@chromium.org to confirm. Even without select "Wide Latin" option, but candidates sorted by frequency. So the wide Latin result still may appear in candidates list.

This is not a bug, but a (minor) conversion quality issue of Google Japanese Input.
"googled" are seven wide latin characters, and it doesn't have space (" ") characters.
It is a kind of expected behavior.
Ideally, it may be better to suggest "google" first instead of "googled".
However, I think it is a minor issue since
- Typical Japanese user turned off IME if they want to input ASCII characters like "google" or "googled".
and user don't need good suggestions in this case since
- Google Japanese Input automatically changes the composition text to "google" if user types "google".
- Typical Japanese IME (includes Google Japanese IME) converts input characters to ASCII characters by F10 key.
