Bug Description
From time to time, extra keyboard layouts are added to the list of selectable layouts and input methods, without being added by the user.
One way I triggered this just a moment ago was:
1) Use a European system keyboard layout with some non-ASCII (8-bit) characters.
2) Activate the "Use system keyboard layout" option.
3) Activate Intelligent Pinyin, Anthy etc. and verify that the non-ASCII characters can be entered.
4) Restart IBus and try again if the above didn't work.
5) Deactivate the "Use system keyboard layout" option and repeat steps 2-4 to verify that the non-ASCII characters cannot be entered this time.
6) Activate the "Use system keyboard layout" option and repeat steps 2-4 to verify that they can be entered again.
At some point during the process, a Japanese keyboard layout was added to the list of selectable layouts!
