[Bug 741869] Re: Unity/compiz intercepts Super and Alt keypresses from grabbed windows like VMs.

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: unity
  
  After upgrading from Maverick to Natty, I can no longer use the Super
  (windows) key in Virtual Machine Manager. Previously, as long as I had
  the Virtual Machine Manager console window in the foreground, I could
  press the Super key and the start menu would pop up. Since upgrading to
  Natty, this no longer works, and the search box appears in the upper
  left.
