[Impact]
* Ubuntu MATE included the ability to kill the X server using Ctrl+Alt+BkSpc over a year ago while the initial Compiz integration was being added. That facility is a hangover and no longer required.
* This updated version of Ubuntu MATE Settings removes usr/share/
[Test Cases]
* Install Ubuntu MATE 16.04 using Greek language and locale and US language. You will be unable to switch between the US and the Greek keyboard layout using Alt+Shift.
* Once Ubuntu MATE Settings 16.04.5.2 is installed it will be possible to switch between keyboard layouts using Alt+Shift.
[Regression Potential]
* The ability to kill the X session using Ctrl+Alt+BkSpc will be lost. But none of the other Ubuntu flavours support this functionality and it's removal restore the default Xorg behaviour.

Please don't do this separate "SRU bug" kind of thing. Please just add the SRU information to the actual bugs (bug 1574789 in this case) so that the reporters of these real bugs get notified and can test updates, etc.
