I tried unity with Ubuntu 11.10 for about a month with unity thinking maybe I could get used to it.  Finally I stumbled on a thread for getting the gnome legacy stuff working from gnome 3.  Essentially all you had to do was add the gnome 3 libraries and reboot, then select the legacy stuff at login like before. 

The ibus 日本語入力 worked fine with both Unity and Gnome.

Long term I don't know where ubuntu is going but this gnome setup close enough to gnome 2 that I'm happy for now.  Hopefully ubuntu will realize how many of us dislike unity and give us what we want.  I saw that Ubuntu 12.04 is out but am reluctant to touch it.
