I just tried on a quck F20, which is admittedly in Beta.  Firstly, they are
changing the default from ctl+space to super+space, perhaps in a fit of Mac
Envy (though Mac now has cmd+space default to search or something like
that, I remember having to fix it for my wife.)

I don't know if it's me getting grouchier with age, but every iteration of
almost every distribution seems worse and worse, doing more to limit you to
the developer's choices--obviously, to a certain point, this is necessary,
but I remember, for example, in an earlier Fedora where the developer
assumed you'd be using Gnome or KDE, and dbus-X11, which was necessary for
ibus to work wasn't getting installed.  

So if it turned out that ibus-anthy or ibus-mozc only worked properly up to
Ubuntu 13.04 or (or 12.10) and Fedora 19, it would just reinforce my
opinion.  :)   Though we can't blame this one on Mr. Poettering, as far as
I know.
