Well this is how ibus is done, as u can see, ugly. but i should say users would never see this long long menu, because this menu provides 13 kinds of input methods for users, where normal users use less than 3 input methods, this screenshot is just to show ibus can provide so many IMs....
I know u guys maybe have never really experienced what input method is, so i uploaded a video demo on youtube : http://youtu.be/fWEk5JkAr1g , there is no dark magic.
