That would take too long to run a command. It has been Alt+F2 for years.
There is an old southern American saying. It goes: "If it isn't broke, don't
fix it!"
This is evolution, integration, embedding, not just a fix. An Italian
saying sounds like: "don't change the winning team".
  Anyway if you always think like this, we should still use Gnome 1.0.......

Good point :) But this is one of those times where a lot of Ubuntu users would be confused if a change went on like this. It is not what happened when we changed to GNOME 3 from GNOME 2.x. People did not think that GNOME was broken or was a bug. They did not think that their computer was broken. They would though if we changed the key combinations. If they do not know that we changed combinations, they would probably just think that either something is wrong with their keyboard, or that we simply removed the combination. We are the winning team, so don't change it! ;)
