I reported new bug 1687588 about text blinking on selection with <Ctrl+Shift+arrow> while layout switcher is set to <Ctrl+Shift>.
** Description changed: [Impact] Can't set keyboard layout change to Ctrl+Shift, Caps Lock, Alt+Shift, etc. Shift, Caps Lock keys are just ignored in settings. [Test Case] - open gnome-control-center's text input settings - click on the "next layout key" entry - try entering a combination of two modifier keys such as Ctrl+Shift -> the UI should reflect the new keys - add at least two input sources through gnome-control-center's text entry - settings + settings - press and release Ctrl+Shift -> the current input source should change [Regression Potential] That UI was not working before, it should only be an improvement (some key combos are not working as expected, that's another issue and shouldn't be mixed with this one) The input switching shortcut might capture other non-modifier shortcuts, but users will need to consider this when choosing their switching shortcut anyways. For users this bug affects, this represents a working solution for a critical bug. -- Test results for different keyboard layout change hotkeys may be viewed and added in the Google Docs table, created by Norbert (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ao5e713Ig9g_dEJrX2NRYlpLWWVzSWxsVXU4ck9HYVE&usp=sharing).
