Bug Description
Since upgrading to 12.04 I find that while custom defined shortcuts work (with minor reservations, see below), the system defined shortcuts either do not work, or cannot be disabled.
For example, Ctrl-Alt-F is supposed to bring up a terminal window, but it doesn't.
I use Eclipse a lot, and because it has a repeat-line keyboard shortcut that is bound to Ctrl-Alt-Down/Up, I have disabled these two bindings in the gnome control center / keyboard shortcuts settings. They show up as "Disabled". However, they are not disabled, they continue to send me to the workspace above/below. For this reason I am unable to use the keyboard shortcuts in Eclipse, which is frankly driving me nuts.
As for the custom shortcuts, they work but I find they are "slow to react", in lack of a better term. I press they keyboard shortcut - nothing happens. I press it again - nothing happens. I press the shortcut 3-4 times in very quick succession (desperation setting in :-) and then the shortcut works, launching the link 3-4 times.

In the above, I mean Ctrl-Alt-T for the terminal, not Ctrl-Alt-F. The shortcut, even the correct one :-) does not work.
