John Lea pointed out in chat today that except for the Show Desktop shortcut, the other keyboard shortcuts mentioned in the bug are new to 12.04 so there is no regression (except for beta users). I'll give my +1 from the Docs Team for those. I'll have to talk with dpm to see if this is something we can change in ubuntu-docs now or if we need to wait for the first SRU.
I'm not convinced yet about the Show Desktop shortcut changing though. I think people expect either Ctrl+Alt+D (which has been used in Ubuntu pretty consistently for quite a while and is the current default) or Super+D (what Windows does). I hesitate to give a +1 for this change as I don't know if our keyboard shortcut users will appreciate the change this late in the release cycle.
John also said "Basically we want to end up with all the window shortcuts starting with CTRL+SUPER and all the workspace shortcuts starting with CTRL+ALT." He further made the point that if shortcuts are going to change, it is better to do them before the LTS which is reasonable.
