get/set/enumerate keyboard layouts and input methods

Hello everyone,

The goal here is to programmatically get access to the functionality provided by the input menu (the "flag menu"). So I'd like to be able to query the system for a list of input methods and keyboard layouts, as well as get/set the current layout and input method.

I don't have any trouble with the keyboard layouts, as the KL* functions do this just fine, eg: KLGetKeyboardLayoutAtIndex.

The problem is that these functions yield layouts not available in the input menu preferences, and misses others. For example, the keyboard layout method "KANA" is returned, but doesn't seem to be available to the user via the input menu. More critically, input methods are missing from the list, eg: the entry with the Japanese flag emblem and a white boxed apple logo in front.

Anyone know how to get these properly?
Thanks for any help,

~Martin
