It would be great if you could post some test-cases.
Ideally in bugzilla or even we could mention it in the test event.

As far as possible we want ibus to work for all users.
So if it is breaking stuff we would really like to know about it. :)

As far as config interaction with xkb is concerned I think there is no change compared to scim here,
we haven't gotten that far enough to allow tighter integration with gnome yet.
