Super Key does not display numbers on launchbar

[Humphrey van Polanen Petel]

Pressing the Super Key used to display the numbers 1-9 and 0 so users could use the keyboard to launch their favorite applications, i.e. those locked to there.

Now those numbers are gone and users need to count down to find out which key to press.

This a serious degradation of usability.
