Thanks for your report, Brendan. However, I'm pretty sure there is some
kind of misconception involved - it simply does not work that way.
The input method selector in Language Support is a user specific setting
only. Switching the value changes the file ~/.xinputrc. Also, when you
are in a guest session, clicking "Apply System-Wide" is a no-op. A guest
cannot change any settings system wide. (And when you click "Apply
System-Wide" from a regular session, you are prompted for an admin
password, and then you change the default display language settings
system wide, not the input method.)
The default system wide input method in Wily is locale dependent.
Possibly that has something to do with the observations you made. So, if
you provide an even more detailed step-by-step description for
reproducing the behavior, including what you did with respect to display
language settings, we might be able to figure out the explanation and
decide if something ought to be changed.
** Changed in: language-selector (Ubuntu)
