Title:
  meta/alt-(key) combos intercepted by HUD *and* applications

Status in Unity:
  New
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I'm a long-time Unity user. After recently upgrading to 14.04, I
  notice that Meta/Alt is intercepted by Unity to expose the HUD *even
  when in a key combination*.

  For example, within emacs and gnome-terminal (readline), I used to be
  able to use Alt-D do forward delete a word. With 14.04, Alt-D deletes
  a word and brings up HUD. (This is particularly annoying because the
  window loses focus and my next bit of typing ends up in the search
  bar.)

  I am certain that this wasn't an issue in previous releases.
