They should better be solved.

It should also be mentioned that the input source switching GUIs in
Unity and GNOME, especially the latter, are designed so the user
shouldn't typically need to know about IBus or im-config. They should be
able to just pick a source and start typing.

Please note that the IBus processes are started in Unity and GNOME (not
sure about GNOME Flashback) anyway. What's affected by the im-config
configuration is the IM related environment variables.

Title:
  ibus/im-config in Ubuntu GNOME

Status in Ubuntu GNOME:
  New
Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in gnome-session package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in im-config package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  In the gnome-language-selector one is able to set the "Keyboard input
  method system". For instance on my system I can either set it to
  "none", "IBus", or "fcitx". However there is no such option in the
  gnome-control-center's Region & Language section, though I think that
  there should be.
