Currently Unity is mapping the Windows key to display numbers for icons.
There are big issues doing this:
1) Video Out hotkeys are now sending Super (Windows) + P
*When video out hotkey is pressed Unity
This relates to this bug (which is being fixed upstream to support Super (Windows) + P):

I also have a video (sorry for the quality) here to demonstrate:

2) OEMs who ship Windows cannot ship Unity if it maps the Windows (Super Key) and the keyboard has Windows Logo.
* The summary here is that if you are an OEM you cannot ship any other software, but Windows that uses the Windows Key, if the Microsoft Windows Logo is on the keyboard.
So if OEM does not have the Windows Logo on the keyboard (where super is) it is fine. But all OEMs at this point in time have Windows Logo on the keyboard.
* If you would like more information on this please contact Pat in Canonical OEM services.
