Hi Brian. I have been running Cosmic (Ubuntu 18.10) as my main OS since its release, and I don't think I've ever actually hit the bug on Cosmic.
(I just verified that I have the GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus variable set, too. So I think I would be hitting this bug, if Cosmic were affected.)
So, my assumption has been that Cosmic has a newer snapshot of gnome-shell or ibus or some other involved package which has changed in some way to avoid the bug.
All of which is to say: based on my experience at least, the update from comment #52 here isn't necessary to fix this bug in Cosmic (but perhaps it's still valuable to keep pace with upstream, or something like that).
