Thanks, Alkis, then I understand better. Sounds like the Greek issue is
quite the opposite to the Togo issue then...

I have also noticed that IBus doesn't come preinstalled on MATE.
However, gnome-language-selector UI works the same there, i.e. if you
*explicitly* select "none", the ~/.xinputrc file with "run_im xim" is
created. Considering what we know now, it should be changed, and I'm
going to modify gnome-language-selector, by adding an explicit "xim"
option, and let "none" really mean "none".

I have also an idea now about the root cause of the Greek issue. Getting
back to you later about that.

  How can I help to get this feature apply as soon as possible?

  Thanks in advance for help.
