Title:
  Input method does not work in the Unity Dash

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  # PROBLEM DESCRIPTION

  Input method does not work in the Unity Dash.

  Currently, my input method defined in ~/.xinputrc is xim. The files
  reads:

  run_im xim

  This allows me to keep a custom mapping of Compose sequences in
  ~/.XCompose. It works everywhere inside the graphical environment,
  except in the Unity dash/Launcher, where keyboard sequences behave
  like in a standard installation (i.e., without defining xim as input
  method).

  # EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

  I should be able to use my compose sequences defined in ~/.XCompose .
  For example, one of the sequences is:

  <dead_acute> <c>                        : "ç"   ccedilla # LATIN SMALL
  LETTER C WITH CEDILLA

  However, in the dash I get a ć (c-acute). See screenshot provided.

  # CURRENT BEHAVIOR

  None of my compose sequences in ~/.XCompose work. This problem happens
  100% of the time.
