Comment 25 for bug 161960

Why do you keep talking about Microsoft and Windows? This tracker is for Ubuntu. What if Microsoft decides to change the keyboard shortcuts in another version; should we change ours too, to make sure Ubuntu still feels like a cheap Windows-copy? Without mentioning Microsoft or Windows, explain why Super L is a better keyboard combination than alt+f1 for the Applications- or mainmenu? Don't get me wrong; it's ok if our stuff looks and feels like Windows if it is a good reason for it, but once we start copying decisions just to copy Microsoft, we're on thin ice. Most people dislike the Start-menu Windows keyboard shortcuts, and very few will miss it. If they really miss it that much, they can easily change it themselves. If they don't want to learn even the simplest things when they migrate to another operating environment, then they should be advised not to make the migration at all. Now, I'll leave it up to you to come up with a _real_ argument why Super L is the best shortcut for that functionality.
