I have exact same problem as Brian: as my workspace shortcuts are involving Super and not Ctrl+Alt, Ctrl+Alt are never released and the workspace switcher stays.

To reproduce this with the normal shortcuts, it's a bit more complex than what is in the bug description:
 1. Go to top-left workspace
 2. Press Ctrl+Alt+Right
 3. Release Right
 3. Press Tab
 4. Release Tab
 5. Release Ctrl
 6. Press Tab
 7. Release Alt+Tab
=> All along the workspace switcher stayed over, and is still there.
No key works, and the cursor is invisible until your press/release Ctrl+Alt.

I'd say the workspace switcher should disappear much more easily. At least disappear as soon as the key combo which was used to initiate is not anymore fully pressed.
