I feel this is a bug deserving more than "severity: normal", given that it almost completely destroys the OS's ability to input chinese characters. The fact that the workaround also destroys the cache of input training data is not great either. Furthermore, the fact that the only mention of the workaround is in this thread and an AskUbuntu page, laypeople are going to need quite a bit of luck to find this.
