[Bug 1301720] Re: [Text Entry] Missing English input in Simplified and Traditional Chinese default enviroment

[Yung Shen]

hello @xnox

Those random characters was generated by ibus-bopomofo, and that float-
panel does provide you a way to switch in between traditional chinese
and english alphabets, but not all the chinese input methods provides
similar way to switch input characters.

As following your steps with trusty beta 2 image, the default input source in traditional chinese should be ibus-chewing, which does not have float-panel, user still have to add english input source. 
Although in simplified chinese, provides ibus-pinyin which uses english alphabet to generate simplified chinese characters, a stand-alone english input source still missing compare to japanese and korean( see comment #9 ) 

to @gunnarhj 
it should be just one input source here, I've double checked with beta 2 image, please check my attachment.
