>> In ibus 1.2.0.20091215-1ubuntu3 and 1.2.0.20091215-1ubuntu2, IBus was changed to use a custom status menu ("application indicator") instead of a notification area item.

>> Application indicators currently do not allow bitmap icons. So in bug 528213, the new indicator was altered to use a generic keyboard icon instead of the icon representing the current input method whenever the latter is a bitmap -- which is most of the time.
>>
>> This makes it unreasonably difficult to tell what input method you are currently using. According to Emmet Hikory, this problem will affect anyone who uses IBus to type Chinese, Japanese, or Korean, who uses an input method that does not cover all the characters they use, but who does not use a dedicated keyboard with specific keys for changing input method.

>> Because of the number of people this affects, I think this may deserve fixing for Ubuntu 10.04, even though we're past Final Freeze. As I understand it, fixing it would involve removing 05_appindicator.dpatch from the package.
