Bug Description

Binary package hint: unity

Super-t is a default key binding in Unity that opens the thrash can. If you press it seveal times, then it keeps creating new instances instead of switching to the currently running instance. This is meaningless.

bug 692444 could be related to the problem you are reporting but I am not fully sure if both are the same, both could have the same fix(?). Jo what do you think?

Bug still exists in 14.10
Is not related to the other bug about clicking the Trash icon multiple times.

Bug is: cannot remap Super+T
Super+T appears to be hardcoded into Unity to open Trash.
Cannot be unmapped in either Keyboard settings -> shortcuts, or in Compizconfig settings manager.

Only workaround appears to be to change the Unity launcher shortcut from Super to something else.
