I wonder how can one set ctrl+shift to switching layouts. I have a switch mapped to super + space and cannot remap it. In fact this functionality was removed somewhere around GNOME 3.4 or so. Now, you have to use some alpha/numeric key in addition to functional ones (ctrl/alt/shift/super). So setting to ctrl+shift should be forbidden.
