Title:
  can't assign numpad keys correctly to shortcuts

Status in metacity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  uname -a : Linux XXXXXXXX-Ubuntu-x64 3.0.0-14-generic #23-Ubuntu SMP
  Mon Nov 21 20:28:43 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

  running Unity.

  
  I switch workspaces a lot so i found it usefull to be able to switch them 
even quicker by assigning the directions to the arrow keys on the numpad. My 
numpad is (while Numlock is off) a bunch of PageUp, PageDown, Home, End et 
cetera keys.
  When turning numlock on, all these functions are disabled in favor to the 
numbers.

  The problem is, that the shortcut is apparently not assigned to the
  Arrow but the Key itself, so pressing Num4 also triggers the shortcut
  to switch to the left, even while Numlock is activated. Thus,
  assigning shortcuts to the NumPad - Arrows makes it absolutely
  unusable to enter numbers, which in some way is the main use of the
  numpad.

  What I'd like it to be like: 
  While the NumLock is off, i can trigger the Shortcut.
  While the NumLock is on, i can type numbers.
