Bug Description
I would like to have the tile shortcuts to be `Ctrl+Alt+Left` and `Ctrl+Alt+Right` to tile the windows to the left and right respectively.
Something is overwriting the tiling settings to be `Super+Left` and `Super+Right`, I suspect it is the tiling-assistant.
I have tried to set the tiling shortcuts using the settings app, and it works for a while, but then it gets overwritten periodically.
When I go into the settings UI and change the keyboard shortcut for `view split on left` to `<Ctrl+Alt+Left>` I get the following in dconf watch:
```
/org/gnome/
['<Control>
/org/gnome/
['<Control>
```
I left `dconf watch /` running and saw the following output after resuming from suspend:
```
/org/gnome/
@as []
/org/gnome/
@as []
org.gnome.
{'org.
```
Based on my understanding of this package, I suspect the settings UI needs to change, but I figured you would be the best group to submit the bug since you have the most context on the required change.
