Public bug reported:

In 12.04, I am unable to assign the keyboard shortcut Ctrl-Alt-w to
anything.

For example, if I go to System Settings - Keyboard - Shortcuts and try
to modify the keybinding for "Launch Web Browser" to Ctrl-Alt-w, the
window just returns to the main System Settings screen and the new
keybinding is not assigned.

This was with a fresh install of 12.04.  Tried it with a new user as
well and the same problem exists.  I was able to do so without any
issues in 11.10.
