If you do a

   M-x set-language-environment

either interactively or in your .emacs, then you can switch between
input methods with just C-\.  You don't have to "select" an input
method.  Some input method apropriate for the language gets chosen
apropriately.  I am not sure "how" the default input method is chosen
but the fact is it gets chosen.
