Could also have happened since Saturday, which is more plausible, as
this gave me the appmenu update:

2011-02-12 15:25:00 configure indicator-application 0.2.93-0ubuntu2 
0.2.93-0ubuntu2
2011-02-12 15:25:00 configure indicator-appmenu 0.1.94-0ubuntu1 0.1.94-0ubuntu1

This is confirmed in a guest session and a fresh account, so it's not
related to any settings of mine. It happens in unity and in a classic
session with compiz and global app menu, but not in classic session with
compiz and no global menu.

** Also affects: indicator-appmenu (Ubuntu Natty)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: indicator-appmenu
  
  Since around last Friday, I can't use Alt and Control key bindings in
  some programs any more. In particular, Alt+1 and Alt+2 (switch between
  view modes) and Ctrl+E (edit ~/.gtimelog/timelog.txt in external editor)
  break in gtimelog. Also, I have configured right control as Push To Talk
  key in mumble, which is now also broken. If you try to set it in the
  mumble prefs, nothing happens if you press control.
+ 
+ Detailled reproduction steps:
+ 
+ - install gtimelog
+ - start a session with global menu (e. g. guest session)
+ - start gtimelog
+ - enter "arrived", press enter
+ - enter "foo", press enter; now you have a logged task
+ - press Alt+2 to switch to grouped mode, nothing happens when global menu is 
on
+ - press Ctrl+E to call editor; nothing happens when global menu is on
+
