    Target Release: ---


It seems we already have 半角/全角 as a global hotkey activator, but we should add
ALT-` as another global hotkey activator in the medium-term.  ALT-` is the
expected way to activate Japanese IM on a non-Japanese keyboard.  ALT-半角/全角
should also be added since it is in the same position and users use it even
though ALT is not necessary.

During user testing, the user held down 無変換 and pressed 半角/全角, and was
surprised that it did not activate like it does on Windows.  It is unclear if
無変換 is meant to be a modifier like ALT, but in any case 半角/全角 should have
worked in this case while it did nothing with ibus.

In summary, the following hotkeys should be activators by default:
* 半角/全角
* ALT-`
* ALT-半角/全角
* 無変換 + 半角/全角

These hotkeys should not conflict with anything (except for an unimportant
emacs binding that uses ALT-`).
