Bug Description

Today, after a dist-upgrade, I found out that the Run Application shortcut was no longer working.
Actually, if used in terminal, prints ";3Q" on the command line, while Alt+F1 prints ";3P" and Alt+F3 prints ";3R".
I am not even able to access terminal from my user-defined shortcut "Ctrl+Alt+T".
If used when Firefox is focused, Alt+F2 reports a FoxyProxy error: "Error reading string resource: quickadd.disabled", that has never shown up.

Feel free to ask for more information or attachments.

Thanks,

Fixed according to that bug report. The problem appears to be Compiz no longer passing Alt-F2 through, and requires it's own gnome compat plugin loaded.
