Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:
1a. For predictable results download 16.04 mini ISO and install system from it 
(system packages, OpenSSH server and then
"sudo apt-get install aptitude
sudo aptitude install gnome-panel lightdm gnome-session-flashback light-themes 
gnome-control-center gnome-terminal apport python-apport firefox compiz-gnome"
).
1b. Start with already installed Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (install gnome-panel to it).
2. Login to GNOME FlashBack session (Metacity) or (Compiz).
3. In gnome-control-center set keyboard layouts (for example Russian and 
English), set shortcut to <Alt+Shift> (displayed as <Alt+Next Group>).

Expected results:
1. User is able to use <Alt+Shift> as keyboard layout switcher.

Actual results:
1. User is unable to use <Alt+Shift> as keyboard layout switcher.

Notes:
1. This bug is very likely related to well known bug #1218322 and proposed 
testcase from bug #1604466.
2. <Ctrl+Shift> works, but interfere with other <Ctrl+Shift+...> combinations 
(see bug #1245473).
3. <Super+Shift> works but displayed as <Mod4+Super+Hyper+Shift L>. Seems to be 
good variant, but it's unusual.
