Btw, whatever the solution is going to be, it won't happen in trusty.
(Neither in utopic.)

Title:
  keyboard input method system not available from keyboard configuration
  in gnome-control-center

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “language-selector” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The setting for the keyboard input system is not available in the only
  place where it should be set. It is only available instead in the
  separate application gnome-language-selector which has an icon in the
  gnome-control-center but is labeled as "Language Support".

  This caused pain to me and a lot of other users because of the
  installation and default activation of iBus in 14.04. (​see #1365752).
  It took me a long time to find that the setting is in gnome-language-
  selector, and I've discovered just now, filing this bug, that there is
  a way to access it from the control center. 30 minutes ago I would
  have titled the bug just "keyboard input method not available in
  control center".

  - "Language Support" should deal with the selection of a language. Setting the behaviour of the keyboard here is inappropriate.
  - "Keyboard" should deal with the configuration of the keyboard. A setting that changes the behaviour of the keyboard such as the input method should be available here.
