Bug Description

This is my first bug report and I know of what sometimes occurs when using a PPA.
After I posted a message on GNOME on Google plus
https://plus.google.com/+AndrewMillington0/posts/hJaUYZZnLSR

The short cuts were disabled and after an update those short cuts were somehow enabled with a single key even though shown as disabled. The keys in question was 's' an 'l'.
's' was allocated to default help and 'l' to the screen keyboard on/off.

I spent a bit of time checking if I am doing the right thing in turns of existing bugs and reporting to the right area.
