I think maybe I didn't make it clear in the original post.  The "IBus
Panel" *is* in the systray.  It even shows in the "System Tray Settings"
under "Entries".  I even marked it "Always Visible".  I can click in the
area occupied by the IBus Panel and change the input method. 

FYI, there is no "IBus Panel" application in the menu since it isn't an
"application".
