I can now add that it works in Skype (a qt application) too. I have
tested it successfully in trusty, utopic and vivid.

Btw, my selected IM framework is IBus, i.e. the default in Ubuntu (with
Chinese as an exception in 15.04). When I tested to switch to fcitx, it
did not work. Possibly fcitx will be the default IM framework in Ubuntu
15.10, so fixing it for fcitx may be a future issue.

Btw, the fact that it works for me with IBus is in line with those who
stated in previous comments that simply installing ibus made '+c work
for typing ç. Maybe they were using Brazilian Portuguese as display
language...

Right.

Well, my idea is to have the cedilla-brazil.sh file installed on
everyone's computers by default. (I'm thinking of including it in the
language-selector-common package.)

That way it would work out of the box for those users who select a
Brazilian location for the time zone when installing Ubuntu. Otherwise
the users can fix it via the Language Selector GUI instead of the
command line workaround:

* Open Language Support
* Install the Portuguese language
* Select Brazilian Portuguese *either* as display language *or* as the
  regional formats choice (or both)

Certainly I don't say that this is an ideal solution. Just like you I
think it would be more natural to create an alternative keyboard layout
which could be selected in Text Entry. I just don't know if and if so
how it could be accomplished.

The LC_CTYPE thing appears to be at least an improvement IMO.
