I decided the Control+space only is fixed in this bug: https://github.com/fujiwarat/ibus-gjs/commit/bc00708b9d80602483eb30a29fc16c56188eaab3 Since the IME switcher window cannot grab keyboard events, I disabled to show the switcher UI and just switch prev-next engines in shell entry boxes. The upstream bugs about preedit visible and commitment won't be fixed in f17 and will be separated bugs.
