Okay, so the solution we want here are additional shortcuts to semi-maximize windows vertically and move them to left/right parts of the screen...
The best way to achieve that:

1. Remove the changing of the standard shortcuts by debian/patches/ubuntu-config.patch, so the original ones will work again.
2. Add 2 quasi-duplicated shortcuts with the functions to semi-maximize windows vertically and move them to left/right half of the screen to Grid and make those functions use "Ctrl + Super + Cursor Left or Right" on Ubuntu.

** Changed in: compiz
       Status: Triaged => In Progress

** Description changed:

  The "Ctrl + Alt + numpad 4" and "Ctrl + Alt + numpad 6" keyboard
  shortcuts are not working in 13.04.
  
  See bug #878820 for the full specification of the numpad window
  placement shortcuts. Quoting from this bug:
  
  "Ctrl-Alt-Numpad 4 - Place window on the left side of the screen in
  *semi-maximised* state (it is important that the window is actually
  semi-maximised, not just the same size and position as a semi-maximised
  window) Pressing a second time does nothing.
  
  Ctrl-Alt-Numpad 6 - Place window on the right side of the screen (it is
  important that the window is actually semi-maximised, not just the same
  size and position as a semi-maximised window). Pressing a second time
  does nothing."
