This issue is still present on 18.04, but it proved to be Wayland specific. The gnome-language-selector UI works as expected if I log in to Ubuntu with Xorg. The fact that Xorg will be default in 18.04 reduces the urgency of this bug.

The UI works partially, i.e. I can drag the top item downwards, and I can also drag the "English" item downwards, so if you are patient enough it's possible to work around the problem. This issue is present with GNOME shell. If I install unity-session and switch to Unity, the language-selector-gnome UI works as usual.
