That confuses me. I see that you use an XFCE desktop, and the only icon
you should have AFAIK is "IBus Preferences" which starts a GUI for
certain settings. Quitting that should only quit "IBus Preferences"
while ibus-daemon should keep running.

If you have something else, can you please take a screenshot to show us
what it looks like.

ibus-daemon is not an application. It's a background process, and on
Debian/Ubuntu it's started silently at login while a few related
environment variables are set.

If you want to use some other IM framework, e.g. Fcitx or uim, you can
tell the system so in "Language Support", and after next reboot it will
start Fcitx or uim at login instead and assign other values to the
related variables.

Right, if the ibus-daemon process is not running, "ibus restart" won't
help. But there are 'crashes' which don't kill ibus-daemon, and then
"ibus restart" often helps.
