Comment 61 for bug 663776

@Gunnar
Honestly, existing IM management is fine enough, its very simple, please
don't make it more complicated. I know you're trying to help, and also we
appreciate your effort.
Besides, im-switch might be replaced by im-config in Ubuntu soon, because
upstream author has been focus on im-config already.
