Bug Description

Input method under GNU/Linux relies on several environment variables to work properly, setting the following sudoers config by default will enable input method in applications run as other users:

````
Defaults env_keep += "GTK_IM_MODULE"
Defaults env_keep += "QT_IM_MODULE"
Defaults env_keep += "QT4_IM_MODULE"
Defaults env_keep += "CLUTTER_IM_MODULE"
Defaults env_keep += "XMODIFIERS"
````

Thanks in advance!
