Title:
  Super-W sometimes opens the dash instead of showing all windows

Status in Unity:
  In Progress
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The Super-W keystroke sometimes opens the dash instead of showing all
  windows. The behavior seems to depend on how long you hold down the
  super key. Tapping + releasing both the super key and w key will open
  the dash. Holding down the super key for more than about 0.5sec will
  open the spread, no matter how long you hold down the w key.

  Oddly I can't reproduce the problem with other super- keystrokes such
  as Super-S or Super-T. It only happens with Super-W. A quick tap of
  Super-S will reliably open expo mode.

  To reproduce:
  1) Quickly tap Super-W

  Expected results:
  The spread opens

  Actual results:
  The dash opens

  I can reproduce this on multiple keyboards from different
  manufacturers, so I don't think it's anything unique to the keyboard
  itself.
