This is a very confusing situation (not only for ubuntu beginners). To
resolve it I would either recommend that

a) It should not be possible to select the "Typing" tab during key
stroke recording

or

b) Selecting the "Typing" tab during key stroke recording should abort
that recording

Title:
  Locked input while recording a shortcut

Status in unity-control-center package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  - open unity-control-center
  - select "Keyboard"
  - select "Shortcuts" tab
  - select "Screenshots" from the left list
  - select "Take a screenshot" from the right list

  Now the unity control-center expects some keystrokes to be pressed for
  that shortcut "New accelerator"

  - DON'T press any keys but
  - select "Typing" tab

  The "Typing" tab will be shown.

  - select "Shortcuts" tab

  Nothing happens. In fact clicking on anything on the screen has no
  effect. The screen seems to be locked.

  - press "d" key

  Out of the blue you get the "The shortcut "D" cannot be used ..."
  Dialog.

  - click "Cancel"

  Input seems to be unlocked again
