Mozc needs a meta-data addition to make "Preferences" in ibus-setup usable

[Ma Hsiao-chun]

SRU justification

[IMPACT]
 * too many and complicated steps to open Mozc preferences dialogue.
   - without this fix, users have to follow the steps below.

   1. click ibus-indicator
   2. click "Preferences"
   3. change "Show language panel" settings to "Always" or "When active"
   4. turn ibus on
   5. click "settings" button on ibus-toolbar
   6. click "Property"

 * this fix reduces the steps.
   1. click ibus-indicator
   2. click "Preferences"
   3. click "Preferences" button on "Input Method" tab.

[TESTCASE]
   1. click ibus-indicator
   2. click "Preferences"
   3. choose Mozc on "Input Method" tab if multiple IM installed.
   4. confirm that "Preferences" button is grayed out.
   5. update to precise-proposed package
   6. restart ibus-daemon with `ibus-daemon -rdx`
   7. confirm that "Preferences" button on "Input Method" tab is clickable
      and it opens Mozc preferences dialogue.

Indeed, a upstream developer says "We are planning to add this section in the next release." on http://code.google.com/p/mozc/issues/detail?id=169#c1

but upstream issue of this specific enhancement is not registered on the tracker, as far as I see.

[Ma Hsiao-chun (mahsiaochun)]

Would you upgrade mozc in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS when new version of mozc is released?
I guess not since 12.10 already has seemingly much newer release.
http://packages.ubuntu.com/mozc

So I'd like to fix this specific problem locally.

[Nobuhiro Iwamatsu (iwamatsu)]

Hi, I just uploaded version 1.6.1187.102 (r130) to experimental.
Nobuto, Can you upload (sync?, I dont know) this version to Ubuntu?
Because Debian is forzen now, I dont upload to new version to unstable.

[Nobuto Murata (nobuto)]

@Nobuhiro Iwamatsu,

Ubuntu is also in freeze(FeatureFreeze) now, it's hard to pick a new upstream release.

I will fix this issue by a small patch not a whole package from Debian.
But I will request a sync the newest version from Debian once new development version of Ubuntu opened.

Thank you for continuous work on mozc in Debian.

[Nobuto Murata (nobuto)]

attached debdiff to mozc 1.5.1090.102-2/quantal.

[Nobuto Murata (nobuto)]
