Steps to reproduce:
1. Install Ubuntu 17.10 from final ISO-image (cdrom:[Ubuntu 17.10 _Artful Aardvark_ - Release amd64 (20171018)]), select Russian keyboard layout on installation
3. Boot into installed system and log-in
4. Try to change keyboard layout - what is interesting both keyboard shortcuts - <Alt+Shift> and <Super+Space> switch layouts.
5. Open Firefox
6. Change keyboard layout with <Alt+Shift>
Expected results:
* keyboard layout is switched, Firefox does not react on keyboard layout switching
Actual results:
* during switching of keyboard layout (on clicking <Alt> key) Firefox shows its mnemonics (underlines in menu) and distracts user. After pressing <Shift> key keyboard layout is switched, but focus is placed on Firefox menubar. So user needs to change the focus with keyboard (for example <Esc> key) or mouse click.
Notes:
It seems that <Alt+Shift> keyboard layout switcher was quietly set in Ubiquity (see bug 1242572).

Original bug description below:
I'm on Ubuntu 17.10 with artful-proposed enabled.
Changing keyboard layout with alt+shift always triggers "show menu"on Wayland, which makes firefox unusable for users who don't know how to disable the value "ui.key.menuAccessKeyFocuses" from about:config.
Is there any fix? Or maybe you can set "ui.key.menuAccessKeyFocuses" to false by default?
