BTW, do you have any idea when this fix will go into the daily built? Really look forward to testing it!
Also, when I click on the "manage installed language" dialog bar, I would be prompted to install "kde-config-fcitx". This is unnecessary and clearly is a bug and should be removed. Thanks again!

As reported in the Ubuntu Chinese forum (in Chinese): http://forum.ubuntu.com.cn/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=486823 users cannot input Chinese characters. It appears the daily built uses sunpinyin as the default Chinese input method. But sunpinyin is not included in the iso. Sunpinyin has not been maintained for at least a couple of years; several problems have been reported associated therewith but remain unsolved, and it doesn't appear that the problems will be solved any time soon. Ibus-libpinyin has been working very smoothly inside Bionic. Its frequency table regarding single words can be improved, but it works very well for phrases. I suggest we change the default Chinese input method from sunpinyin to libpinyin (i.e., intelligent pinyin). This is an urgent matter.
