Yes, it works for me too, not for pinyin but for anthy.

out of the box.

I'll close the ticket now.

Thanks!

This makes it, so that GNOME can handle system-wide input methods installed
by adding them to the gnome package, to the operating system packages, or
to some other profile-service.  An example would be a system-wide installation
of ibus along with input methods like ibus-anthy or ibus-rime.
