Bug Description

In the current version of compizconfig-settings-manager in precise, if I try to define custom keyboard bindings (e.g. in the Commands plug-in), <Ctrl> gets converted to <Primary> (whatever that means) and the keybinding does not work. This happens when using the "Grab" button; when editing the key combination string one can write <Ctrl>, but the binding does not get set on pressing "Ok".

Screenshot attached.

Version 0.9.7.0~bzr428-0ubuntu3 of libcompizconfig0 seems to be addressing this according to the changelog. However I still encounter problems with ccsm messing up Primary/Control (and Alt/Meta too, apparently).
