Even it's under Untiy 8 session, this is still troublesome, since 3rd party input methods will have their own on-screen keyboard implementation, and for everyday use, maliit's variables should be exported by im-config, not itself.

This will cause several problems: 1. When the export is done after im-config (and usually qtconfig), then all Qt application will try to use maliit as the input method, making all other input method fail to work for user. 2. When the export is done before im-config, im-config will give up setting any of the other variables or starting the selected input method, this will lead to a result that no input method runs for the session.
