Description of problem:
Depending on the setting "Share the same input method among all applications,"
ibus will either always enable itself when text focus changes, or always
disable itself.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ibus-1.3.99.20110419-13.fc15.x86_64
ibus-anthy-1.2.6-3.fc15.x86_64
ibus-chewing-1.3.9.2-3.fc15.x86_64
ibus-gtk2-1.3.99.20110419-13.fc15.x86_64
ibus-gtk3-1.3.99.20110419-13.fc15.x86_64
ibus-hangul-1.3.1-6.fc15.x86_64
ibus-libs-1.3.99.20110419-13.fc15.x86_64
ibus-m17n-1.3.2-7.fc15.x86_64
ibus-pinyin-1.3.99.20110706-2.fc15.x86_64
ibus-pinyin-db-open-phrase-1.3.99.20110706-2.fc15.noarch
ibus-qt-1.3.1-4.fc15.x86_64
ibus-rawcode-1.3.1.20100707-4.fc15.x86_64

How reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Install Firefox, KDE, ibus, and the ibus-pinyin input method. Bug is probably
not limited to this setup.

1. Open Firefox and Konsole.
2. Right click on the ibus icon in the tray and click "Preferences."
3. In the "Advanced" tab, check the box named "Share the same input method
among all applications"
4. Close the dialog
5. Restart ibus by right clicking its tray icon and choosing restart
6. Type something in Konsole. Notice ibus is disabled. I have a US keyboard so
letters show up in Konsole.
7. Enable ibus by left clicking its tray icon and choosing "Chinese - Pinyin."
8. Type something in Konsole. ibus is enabled and produces Chinese output as
expected.
9. Disable ibus by left clicking its tray icon and choosing "Turn off input
method."
10. Move text input focus to a text box in Firefox e.g. by going to google.com.
You may have to switch text input focus a couple of times for the bug to
appear, but it always does after just 1-2 more alt-tabs.

Actual results:
ibus is now enabled and keystrokes produce Chinese

Expected results:
ibus remains disabled and keystrokes produce letters

The opposite happens when the checkbox is unchecked:
1. Open Firefox and Konsole.
2. Right click on the ibus icon in the tray and click "Preferences."
3. In the "Advanced" tab, uncheck the box named "Share the same input method
among all applications"
4. Close the dialog
5. Restart ibus by right clicking its tray icon and choosing restart
6. Type something in Konsole. Notice ibus is disabled. I have a US keyboard so
letters show up in Konsole.
7. Enable ibus by left clicking its tray icon and choosing "Chinese - Pinyin."
8. Type something in Konsole. ibus is enabled and produces Chinese output as
expected.
9. Move text input focus to a text box in Firefox e.g. by going to google.com.
ibus is disabled and produces letters as expected.
10. Move text input focus back to Konsole.

Actual results:
ibus is now disabled and keystrokes produce letters

Expected results:
ibus remains enabled for Konsole and keystrokes produce Chinese


Additional info: This also occurs on my second machine which has a similar
setup. I have fully updated F15 packages. This bug does not repro if I use two
Konsole windows instead of Konsole and Firefox.
