This problem is no better on 20.04.

 -> In the Keyboard Shortcuts dialogue, no function is assigned to  the 
"Search" key.
 ->  There is a custom keyboard shortcut assigned to Ctrl-Search.  It works 
fine.
 -> When I try to set a custom shortcut to the Search key, instead, the desktop 
pops into zoomed-out-view-all-my-windows view whenever I press the Search key, 
even though I have clicked "Set Shortcut" and the key should be trapped

 -> Moreover, even if I set the key with the command

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys.custom-
keybinding:/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/custom-
keybindings/custom8/ binding 'Search'

It now shows up correctly in the dialogue listing shortcuts, but the
action of the key is unchanged: it still just displays the Super-key
overview view rather than carrying out my custom shortcut function

The "Search" key corresponds to pressing the F10 key, without the Fn
modifier, on this Lenovo T450s, running 20.04.

Please help me disable this behaviour that seems hard-wired to this key!
This is a regression since 19.10, as mentioned before.
