Aww, was going to test again with security lock code disabled but they pulled Air UI from Nokia Store. Which is a good thing of course, but this testing ends now here.

Really sorry about the troubles with Air UI.
We are working on a fix for it... but in the mean time my advice is to uninstall Air UI even if it works fine.

Its not AIR that bricked your phone its the navifirm firmware.

Update (sorry for double-posting but I thought It worth a bump):
Looks like http://wiki.meego.com/N950/Fixing_MALF_state works quite well, at least for my N950. (Sorry, couldn't get myself to brick N9, so It's up to you to confirm)
Note: It displays a way scary notice about your warranty is now void, so if you want to do this on your warranty-covered N9, you may want to think again.

To restore your device you can use the Nokia Software Updater. Reinstalling with NSU keeps your pictures, music and docs but you'll lose all the installed apps and you'll have to re-enter passwords for accounts.
If you really need to keep all your data (installed apps included) you can follow instructions from here: http://wiki.meego.com/N950/Fixing_MALF_state but you'll see a warning about voiding the warranty.
If you decide to go this way, you need to remove the Air UI plugin file: /usr/lib/qt4/plugins/inputmethods/libairuiplugin.so (this is the location on the phone). So if you have followed the exact same steps with the exact same names as in the wiki above, you need to run this command (after mounting the rootfs):
$ sudo rm /mnt/n9/usr/lib/qt4/plugins/inputmethods/libairuiplugin.so
Also remember to remove the malf file.
After boot up you should remove the Air UI package from the Application Manager.

I wish people would stop over hyping the term 'bricking'. If you can reflash and get the device to work again then certainly is not 'bricked'. This term means when you're device it is so badly damaged it's only possible use is as a physical weight.

@christi: how do you install your input method plugin? do you modify any system files?
