I've noticed the same thing in Breezy, but I also have a different
problem with keybindings.

I do have to use W*n*o*s at work so I really want to bind 'Lock screen'
to Win+L, 'home folder' to Win+E, play/pause to 'Win+p', 'stop' to Win+s
etc.

Only problem is that Win+l, Win+e, Win+p, Win+s and some other
combinations just don't work and I have to use xbindkeys to get them
working. I really don't have any clue if there is any bugreport about
this. Am I the only person wanting to use same mappings as in W*n*o*s?

And by default Win is mapped to Super and in 'Keyboard shotrcuts'
pressing left Win just generates 'Super_L' as the shortcut, I have to
manually change it to be 'Meta' to get things working. This might even a
gnome bug, not just ubuntu bug, but I'd need some confirmation from
other ppl about this before reporting it.
