I have my keyboard shortcut set to Alt+Release+Alt_R (i.e. hold down Alt_L and then hit Alt_R). In gnome-terminal, I have to hit Alt_R *twice* to turn iBus on or off. In all other programs, once is enough.

Alt-grave doesn't work for me either, even if I hit grave twice.

IBus responds immediately, however, if I *change* the input method (instead of turning it on or off), which is bound to Shift+Release+Shift_R. Could this bug be related specifically to using Alt as a shortcut? After some experimentation, Alt-grave doesn't work in gnome-terminal, but Ctrl-grave does. Super-grave doesn't work in any program.

I can't change the input method for gnome-terminal at all from the keyboard input menu. Note that the menu is running inside indicator-applet. I have noticed that the menu behaves differently if indicator-applet is not running. However, I haven't tested the menu with gnome-terminal without indicator-applet.

Running in en_US.utf8 on updated maverick upgraded from lucid.
