Bug Description
[Impact]
Unity keyboard shortcuts hint window lists "Dead circumflex" for "Switches window of current applications" under "Switching" , instead of "^" when using german keyboard. This is confusing .
In English, this is properly mapped to "`" so this appears to have lost a translation somewhere. Might be better to map it to "^" in the language pack as the German layout has:

- http://
[Test Case]
* Switching to german keyboard
* Hold Super key down, until unity shortcuts are seen
[Regression Potential]
* I dont see any regression potential

While a cosmetic changed, it would be nice to have quantal SRU as well.
Ideally I'd wish to see this fixed in Gtk upstream as well, and not carry this as a distro patch forever.
I do wonder how this got lost in translation though =)
