UPDATE:

In the past, to enter Unicode characters, the process that worked for me
was...

press and hold Ctrl+Shift+U, type 00+<character code>, release
Ctrl+Shift+U, character is entered

reported bug because that no longer works.

Some searching led me to other methods. The following  works to type
Unicode...

press Ctrl+Shift+U and release, type 4 char hex Unicode value, press
enter, character is entered

so... bug still extant, original method to enter Unicode characters
doesn't work

work around found and my need to enter Unicode chars is resolved. ✓

Title:
  keyboard entry not working correctly

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  keyboard doesn't work correctly for two functions

  1) Manual entry of UniKey characters no longer works

  In all applications Ctrl+Shift U0nnnn no longer enters UniKey
  characters regardless of application; terminal, Firefox, Chrome,
  gedit, LO Write, etc...

  2) When viewing workspaces with WinKey+S activating a workspace with
  the enter key works only with the enter key on the home row. The enter
  key on the numeric keypad no longer works to activate the selected
  workspace.
