Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

Hi!,
When Visual Effects (system->preferences->appearance) is activated,i.e. "normal" or "extra", then the Mod4+M keybinding is used by the graphical compositor to switch to a high contrast theme.

The problem is this "show high contrast theme" keybinding does not show
up in gnome-keybinding-properties so I can edit and assign it a new key
so the mod4+M key is free to be used by other keybindings.

The graphical compositor has already some actions showing up in gnome-
keybinding-properties, like the "Expo key" keybinding, used to show a
cute perspective of the virtual desktops, so the fix for this bug would
be to also include the keybinding for the "show high contrast theme"
action, that currently is hardcoded to mod4+M .

PS: Mod4 = Windows key.
