I can't see how dependencies on core libs, which are installed anyway, would be a problem. The only extra package that would need to be seeded with ibus-qt4 is libibus-qt1, and together they would require 123 kB archive space. I suppose we might be successful in having it accepted. ;-)
We call it input source indicator now. I'm glad to hear that you find it usable. :) I have the same feeling, but since I'm not an IM user, it's not worth so much... So, then we have ibus-pinyin.

The conclusion is that the real workhorse IBus related packages would be pulled by language support. For meta package like ubuntu-desktop, we either leave a barebone IBus (ibus, ibus-gtk, ibus-gtk3) or remove IBus altogether.
