(An obvious workaround is running a script on login that sets the
desired shortcuts.

Title:
  Remapping PrintScreen key to Menu makes it impossible to use the
  renamed key to take screenshots

Status in “unity-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I do not have a menu key on my keyboard, instead I have prinsceen where Menu 
key normally is. So I remmaped it via xmodmap with the line:
  keycode  107 = Menu NoSymbol Menu
  I run xmodmap on a file with this line on every login. In xev, PrtScr 
correctly reports as Menu.  When I try to reassign the Prinscreen command in 
settings>keyboard>shortcuts,  to <ctrl>Menu, it seems to work and it works 
right away, but after I log out and log in, it no longer works even though the 
"<ctrl>Menu "still shows in settings>keyboard>shortcuts.

  This is on 14.04, gnome-control-centre works flawlessly in this regard
  (I tried it under gnome-shell).

  Short steps to reproduce:
  1. Find out which keykode printcreen on your keyboard is using xev (I assume 
here it is 107)
  2. xmodmap -e "keycode 107 = Menu NoSymbol Menu"
  3.gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys screenshot 
"<Super>Menu"
  4. Verify it works by pressing Super+Menu=PrtScr
  5. Log out an in.
  6. It no longer works.
