Title:
  Unable to set Miscellaneous compatibility options in gnome-control-
  center keyboard in Saucy

Status in Ubuntu GNOME:
  New
Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In Ubuntu 12.04 I was able to set Miscellaneous compatibility options in gnome-control-center keyboard (for example, I use "Shift with numeric keypad keys works as in MS Windows"). Here is a list of all missed feautures:
  * Allow breaking grabs with keyboard actions (warning: security risk)
  * Apple Aluminium Keyboard: emulate PC keys (Print, Scroll Lock, Pause, Num Lock)
  * Both Shift-Keys together activate Caps Lock, one Shift-Keys deativates
  * Both Shift-Keys together toggle Caps Lock
  * Both Shift-Keys together toggle ShiftLock
  * Default numeric keypad keys
  * Enable extra typographic characters
  * Numeric keypad keys always enter digits (as in Mac OS)
  * Shift cancels Caps Lock
  * Shift does not cancel Num Lock, chooses 3rd level instead
  * Shift with numeric keypad keys works as in MS Windows
  * Special keys (Ctrl+Alt+<key>) handled in a server
  * Toggle PointerKeys with Shift + NumLock

  In Ubuntu 13.10 I can't set them from gnome-control-center.
