For what it's worth, I just upgraded 13.04 to 13.10 and it worked
about the same.  Forcing Super+space on us isn't that great, but you
can change it, I guess (I will try right after I send this :-) ).  The
message about the change (probably only for Ubuntu upgrades and not
fresh installs) appears very briefly.  I almost missed it!

Otherwise, it seems ok.  One annoying thing is that, previously, when
I hit Super+space, the change to/from English/Japanese would be
indicated at the top-right next to the time.  But that doesn't work --
keeps showing "En".  I guess that's a bug.  But otherwise, no problem
-- at least for a 13.04 to 13.10 upgrade...
