Title:
  ctrl+super keybindings broken in trusty

Status in Unity:
  New
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
   affects unity
   status new

  Unity's handling of Ctrl+Super+X keybindings has regressed in trusty -- Control
  must be pressed before Super is pressed, or Unity hijacks the keybinding
  instead.

  For example:
  1. Press and hold Control
  2. Press and hold Super
  3. Press 1

  This activates the Ctrl+Super+1 keybinding, which for me is Zoom reset
  (from the ezoom plugin).

  However, if you reverse steps 1 and 2, so that Super is held down before
  Control, then the keybinding for Super+1 is activated instead, i.e. the first
  item in the launcher gets activated.

  This bug used to be present in older versions of Unity, but was fixed in Saucy,
  and reappeared in Trusty.
