Ilya Murav'jov from http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=865 has
posted the attached patch to resolve this issue.

It indeed considers the key combinations on release and not on press.
I have checked it with combinations of Alt, Shit andTab where :
Alt+Tab :  next window
Alt+Shift+Tab: previous window
Alt+Shift: change keyboard layout

I have checked it against the karmic version (1.6.4-2ubuntu4.1) and it works.
The patch version can be found in my PPA here:
https://launchpad.net/~andrikos/+archive/ppa

Could someone test it against the version on lucid and update the
package?

PS: Ilya has told me that the "switch on release" is hard-coded and cannot be 
turned off.
Is this a problem? Would there be people preferring to keep the previous 
"switch on press" behavior?
