I checked out the 2018-08-27 ISO, and made these observations:
1. When entering a Chinese live session, the Intelligent Pinyin input
source (default for Simplified Chinese) is not included in the list
of input sources. Only the cn XKB layout is.
2. In Region & Language the Intelligent Pinyin method is not shown in
the Chinese sub menu, even if the zh_CN.UTF-8 locale is active, but
you need to continue to "Other" to find it.
I also found that the problem is not specific to Chinese, but also affects e.g. Japanese.
Item 2 is probably a gnome-control-center issue, while item 1 is probably due to some other package.
So yes, Ping-Wu, I can basically confirm your observations.
Question: Have you also tried a Chinese install? If you have, are the same issues present at first login?
