This also exposes something else, which might be better as a separate
bug.  wm-schemas.convert tries to convert metacity keybindings from
dconf to gconf.  Unfortunately the types are different, so anything
accepted by dconf probably won't actually work once it's written to
gconf.  This was exposed because a dconf update wound up writing all
these keybindings into gconf.  For example, dconf has
org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-windows as ['<Alt>Tab'] which is
an array of strings.  However, metacity expects this to be just the
string '<Alt>Tab'.  When the gconf conversion happens, it seems to
actually convert the key to a list of strings in gconf, and metacity
stops supporting Alt-Tab.
