Xubuntu 13.10 integrates keyboard layouts and input methods using IBus.
Probably the GNOME changes haven't much to do with it; maybe IBus 1.5 has.

Anyway, via the IBus indicator I can easily switch between English (US),
Swedish, Chinese, and Korean. Haven't tested shortcuts, though.

Possibly a solution worth exploring for the Unity LTS.
