Title:
  keybinding properties doesn't remove a shortcut correctly

Status in Gnome Settings Daemon:
  New
Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

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

  On Ubuntu 9.10 (localized for Finnish) gnome-keybinding-properties
  doesn't remove a shortcut correctly when backspace is pressed. The
  previous assignment disappears, but the functionality stays. In some
  cases the original function of a button (try that with Delete for
  example) disappears and nothing else happens. It seems that gnome-
  keybinding-properties changes the key value in gconf to an empty
  string while it should be "disabled".

  Steps to reproduce:
  1) Open gnome-keybinding-properties
  2) Click on "Hide window" (or whatever the equivalent in English would be)
  3) Press Delete to assign it as the key binding
  4) Test that it works as wanted (it does for me)
  5) Click on "Hide window" again
  6) Press Backspace to remove the binding
  7) See the binding disappear in the list
  8) Now press Delete to notice random behaviour (hides the window, delete button just not working for deleting text etc.)
  9) Check out gconf-editor to see what the value in /apps/metacity/window_keybindings for the key "lower" would be. That seems to be now set to an empty string while it should be "disabled".
  10) If you fix it in gconf-editor, everything works as supposed.
