Title:
  shortcut changes not persistent

Status in xdg-utils package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When I change the shortcut left_workspace_key from Ctrl-Alt-Left to Ctrl-Left that works fine. Same for right_workspace_key.
  However, after reboot, the shortcut does not work anymore, although the graphical interface to the settings manager still says that the shortcut is Ctrl-Left.

  Before changing the shortcuts, the config file contains:

      <property name="&lt;Control&gt;&lt;Alt&gt;Left" type="string" value="left_workspace_key"/>
      <property name="&lt;Primary&gt;&lt;Alt&gt;Right" type="string" value="right_workspace_key"/>

  (why Control for the first and Primary for the other??)

  After changing, the original settings are still there:

      <property name="&lt;Control&gt;&lt;Alt&gt;Left" type="string" value="left_workspace_key"/>
      <property name="&lt;Primary&gt;&lt;Alt&gt;Right" type="string" value="right_workspace_key"/>
      <property name="&lt;Primary&gt;Left" type="string" value="left_workspace_key"/>
      <property name="&lt;Primary&gt;Right" type="string" value="right_workspace_key"/>

  A possible solution is to remove the original setting by editing the
  config file. However, whenever any other shortcut is changed (not just
  cleared), the removed settings are set back again.
