The long menu has been enhanced in the latest ibus-gjs gtk3-vala branch. But it still do not work in other distros because we're discussing how the 
internal patches are resolved.
Probably the latest will be available for other distros soon.
We're still discussing the better UI.

Sorry, it's a bit old as I explained above.
It would miss some important features against the last ibus-gjs. E.g. using libgnomekbd and preloaded xkb engines.
Yes, ibus-gjs does not support fcitx because upstream suggests to pick up one input method as the implementation itself would be possible.
