The bug is not invalid. It may belong to ibus or to Cinnamon or to
something else.
Are all icons supposed to have transparent backgrounds? If so, that
would mean that both icons and desktop environments should adhere to
strict color guidelines so that icons are always guaranteed to be
legible. Do such guidelines exist? If so, either (a) this icon does not
have an acceptable color, or (b) Cinnamon's panel does not have an
acceptable background color, or (c) the guidelines are not good enough.
If there are no such guidelines, then icons should never have a
completely transparent background without any border. That is, they
should be designed in whatever way that guarantees that they are visible
on any backround.
So, something is wrong somewhere, either in how the icon is designed, or
in how the desktop environment is designed, or in the the framework
where the desktop and the icons live.
That the user can change the icon color is cool but is not a solution.
The icon must be visible out of the box.
So far, iBus icon is the only one I've ever seen that is practically invisible.
Most icon have bright colors, which seems to suggest that if there is an
expectation about the background color, it's that it is dark, which my current
panel background is.
