Public bug reported:

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.
