Remove finalize() from WInputMethod.java - it is used to free a native id.
Also the reason dispose() didn't free it seems no longer relevant.
Although I did see (when instrumenting) that dispose() was called when I disposed() the Frame referencing the IM,
I don't know if I can be sure that is always done. So safest to add the Disposer in case it isn't.
