Today I updated to GNOME 3 with GNOME Shell, and after a while I noticed that some of my keybindings, made via xbindkeys, didn't work anymore -- namely the key combinations that involved a Mod4 (the Super_L, or "Windows logo" key). In GNOME Shell, the Windows Logo key alone is bound to the "desktop overview" activity, and it seems that it is shadowing all the shortcuts that involve it as a modifier (for example, I use Mod4 + Arrow keys for controlling my media player all the time, or Mod4 for launching Firefox). I also tried setting some of those launcher shortcuts in the 'Keyboard > Shortcuts' GNOME Control Center applet, but those weren't triggered either.
In the fallback interface (that is, without the GNOME Shell) both kinds of shortcuts (GNOME shortcuts and xbindkeys shortcuts) work as they should. This is really annoying to me; has it been reported already? Is there a workaround, such as disabling the Windows key as a shortcut for the desktop overview (there are at least two other ways to do the same thing)?
