Title:
  Unity control center fails to rebind keys

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

Bug description:
  A variety of predefined keys used by unity cannot be rebound.
  (Super+t, Super+w, pretty much anything used by Unity)

  If the user tries to rebind the keys using the unity-control-center ->
  keyboard -> shortcuts dialog, the keybindings will not function.

  The dialog should at least prevent the user from rebinding these keys.
  There is a workaround for binding the keys which involves digging
  around in compizconfig-settings-manager for the guilty keybinding. (
  http://askubuntu.com/questions/34145/can-i-define-keyboard-shortcuts-
  using-the-super-key )

  Ideally, the control center should interface with unity to allow
  binding the keys, there shouldn't be a separate configuration app.
