upstream comment:

"The purpose of the shortcuts page is not to assign different meanings to keys
that have well-established functions already."

Title:
  Menu key cannot be assigned to a keyboard shortcut

Status in GNOME Control Center:
  New
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  After upgrading to Oneiric Ocelot Beta 2, keyboard shortcuts that I
  assign to the Menu key are not obeyed.

  For example, I have set 'System Settings ▸ Keyboard ▸ Shortcuts ▸
  Sound and Media ▸ Volume Mute' to 'Menu', but pressing the Menu key
  does not mute the volume; it opens a context menu.
