Public bug reported:

A bug fix update for ubuntu-mate-settings is requesting an SRU for
Xenial Xerus. Here are the changes:

ubuntu-mate-settings (16.04.5.1) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Remove usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/90-zap.conf. Closes (LP: #1574789)
  * Closes (LP: #1577706)

[Impact]

 * Ubuntu MATE included the ability to kill the X server using
Ctrl+Alt+BkSpc over a year ago while the initial Compiz integration was
being added. That facility is a hangover and no longer required.

 * This updated version of Ubuntu MATE Settings removes
usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/90-zap.conf and restores the ability to switch
keyboard layouts using Alt+Shift.

[Test Cases]

 * Install Ubuntu MATE 16.04 using Greek language and locale and US
language. You will be unable to switch between the US and the Greek
keyboard layout using Alt+Shift.

 * Once Ubuntu MATE Settings 16.04.5.1 is installed it will be possible
to switch between keyboard layouts using Alt+Shift.

[Regression Potential]

 * The ability to kill the X session using Ctrl+Alt+BkSpc will be lost.
But none of the other Ubuntu flavours support this functionality and
it's removal restore the default Xorg behaviour.
