[Neal McBurnett <neal@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

By overriding the upstream default of super-space to fix something for
one desktop, you've broken emacs, eclipse, NetBeans, and many others
that use ctrl-space on every other desktop it seems.  See bug 1278569.

Please fix this properly in Trusty, which is after all a Long Term
Support system, hardly fit for a "transitional solution".

Title:
  Avoid conflicting <Super>Space shortcut with g-s-d

Status in “ibus” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “ibus” source package in Saucy:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Now we are using <Super>Space as the shortcut of switching IME forward, and the shortcut is handled twice: first in g-s-d and then in ibus. This leads to a conflict and the shortcut does not really work.

  [Test Case]
  Old behavior:
  Press <Super>Space does not have any effect of changing the IME forward.

  Expected behavior:
  After installing the updated package, user removes ibus configuration files in ~/.config/ibus and ~/.cache/ibus, and re-login to the system, <Super>Space should work for people who are using Unity or GNOME Shell.

  [Regression Potential]
  IBus may still push notification message about <Super>Space as the shortcut for users of other desktop, but the shortcut in effect would be <Ctrl>Space when there is no other program grabbing the key press (like what g-s-d does).
