Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: metacity

This is (somewhat) related to bug #72732.

In previous versions of Metacity, Alt-F6 was a configurable keybinding.
I have been using it to make windows maximize vertically in the past
(Dapper).  However, under Feisty (metacity 2.17.3-0ubuntu1) this is no
longer possible as the keybinding seems to do some sort of same-
application window switching.

The problem lies in the fact that Alt-F6 is still a configurable
keybinding within the Keyboard Shortcuts application.  A user should be
able to over ride this keybinding.  At this point, a warning isn't even
displayed to state that this key combination is already used for another
purpose.

** Affects: metacity (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
