Yes Ctrl usually means open a second window to Gnome Shell and its dash/docks. That obviously shouldn't still happen with keyboard shortcuts.

Problem description: 1. I have set the Launch terminal shortcut in Settings/Keyboard shortcuts to CTRL+`. 2. I invoke the activities overview by pressing SUPER once. 3. I launch a terminal by pressing the newly set CTRL+` shortcut. What happened: two new terminal windows appeared. What is expected: launch only one terminal window. More info: This only happens when a CTRL modifier is used and the key is set to a non function (F1-F12) key. When an ALT or CTRL+ALT shortcut is used, only one window appears, as expected. Expected behaviour: launch only one terminal window while in the activities overview. What happened: two new terminal windows appeared in the activities overview.
