ibus-setup can be run from the ibus applet.

How about adding a restart menu entry in the ibus menu?

We are not positioning input methods as accessories: they are a core part of
the desktop OS.

See eg bug 238966 for scim.

I recommend adding "NoDisplay=true" to the .desktop files: this is already down
upstream for many packages, eg evince, etc.  Then people who really want them
to appear can add them to their own menu with the menu-editor.

(BTW note also that in Fedora all .desktop files must be setup using
desktop-file-utils:  see the packaging guidelines for desktop files.)
