Title:
  Need to restart unity to activate changes to Custom Shortcuts
  (Settings => Keyboard)

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After changing the Custom Shortcuts (e.g. adding a new entry), I need
  to restart unity to make it effective ("unity --replace &!").

  This also affects changes to existing config entries: if I change
  them, the previous and new combination both are not recognized (until
  I restart unity).

  TEST CASE:
  1. Open Keyboard / Custom Shortcuts
  2. Add a new entry or change an existing one
  3. Press the new shortcut

  ACTUAL RESULT:
  Any changed hotkeys (added or edited) are ignored, until you restart unity.
