Comment 49 for bug 663776

@Kyle
From CJK users perspective, we will enable input method within user session,
and re-login to get it work, like you choose Chinese through
language-selector, and enable input method, re-login, you will get IM
running automatically. Or language-support-input-xx has been installed, user
choose the same locale, IM will run automatically.
