Description

Steps to reproduce:
1. In System Preferences > Language & Text > Input Sources, enable Kotoeri (Hiragana, Katakana, and Ramaji subitems)
2. In the Input menu in the main menu bar (assuming a US system), you should see:
U.S.
Romaji
Hriagana
Katakana
3. Create a Flex 4.5 desktop project in Flash Builder 4.5.
4. Make a simple application with just a Button. For example,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:WindowedApplication xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark">
<s:Button label="Click"/>
</s:WindowedApplication>

5. Run the application. If you run in Flash Builder, the program will run in adl. Or, you can export a release build package and run that.
6. Without clicking in the application window, check the Input menu in the main menu bar. It should look the same as in step 2 with all items enabled.
7. Click in the "Click" button in the AIR application window.

Result:
8. Check the Input menu. The entries for Hiragana and Katakana are disabled. Those are the double-byte character sets. Romaji is still enabled.

Expected:
8. All items in the Input menu are enabled.

Workaround (if any):
