Title:
  Mousekeys shortcut cannot be disabled

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

  The "mouse keys" feature is turned on/off by pressing shift+numlock.
  This shortcut does not appear in System->Preferences->Keyboard
  Shortcuts, and it happens even though "Accessibility features can be
  toggled with keyboard shortcuts" is unchecked.

  This shortcut is very frustrating to press by accident, since there is
  little feedback as to what has happened.  The movement of the mouse
  pointer on a single numeric keypad press is so slight that it's
  unlikely to be noticed -- the user will just think that their numeric
  keypad has stopped working and be clueless about what caused it or how
  to fix it.

  At a minimum, the shortcut should be able to be disabled through the
  configuration menus -- but ideally the shortcut should be disabled by
  default, or on first use produce a popup asking whether the user wants
  that shortcut to be enabled.
