@ Dmitry:
This is somewhat different, i don't mean that i can't change layout with some custom shortcut. I'm using the default shortcuts (super+space, shift+super+space) and these do not work anymore.

But this is not the reason why i mentioned it, of course we can deal
with that later. The reason was that prior to the upgrade through the
PPA, when i was "confirming" the layout change with the mouse (i mean
change the layout to Greek through super+space and then change it to
Greek once more with the mouse), made the shortcuts work on Gedit Text
Editor (but not on global shortcuts).

You can see the relative attached picture on comment #5 of duplicate bug #1228422 of similar test results:

This was true until now. 

Thanks for your time

Bug description:
  New keyboard layout changer in Ubuntu 13.10 introduce  old-new bug. Any system or application hotkey witch use char (for example: ctrl+alt+t for terminal or ctrl+t for new tab in browser) become unfunctional when selected non-latin keyboard layout. 
  Hotkeys with F1-12, numbers and other non-character buttons works perfectly. 

  Window manager hotkeys not affected by this bug. All hotkeys in system
  parameters->keyboard->hotkeys->windows works perfect with any keyboard
  layout.

  Workaround for some system hotkeys and two layouts (english and non-
  latin): rebind all hotkeys in your local layout. For example instead
  of ctrl+alt+t use ctrl+alt+τ (greek tau). That hotkey still work with
  english layout.  If you use english and two different non-latin
  layouts this workaround helps only with one of them.
