12.04 has been a marvelous upgrade for me -- except for this regression.
Rapidly pulling windows side-by-side saved my much time as a software
developer on a large monitor.  Multiple key presses changing sizes meant
that I could quickly give my text editor a little more width, and my
terminal a little less.

Breaking the previous ctrl+alt+4/6 behaviour makes the rest of the
resizing/moving numberpad shortcuts much less useful too, as the
principle of least surprise has been violated pretty badly:

"Use ctrl+alt+numpad to move and resize windows. Up, down, top-right,
top-left, bottom-right, bottom-left, and middle. All directions! It's
easy!

Except for left or right.  In that case you need to use the arrow keys
instead. Oh, and don't use the control key anymore, use the super key
this time. What's the super key you say? Ah, well..."
