Comment 0 for bug 856884

Running unity --reset breaks Alt-F2 for the run command, Meta+D to show desktop, and Alt+F1 to show the main menu. I believe Unity itself ignores these metacity settings, but this breaks GNOME Shell & other similar sessions.

See also https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/1:0.9.5.94+bzr2803-0ubuntu4 which I guess "fixed" the Ctrl-Alt-T shortcut.

TEST CASE
1. cd ~/.gconf/apps
2. mv metacity metacity-old
3. unity --reset
4. Within a minute or so, a new metacity folder is created
5. cat metacity/global_keybindings/%gconf.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<gconf>
 <entry name="panel_run_dialog" mtime="1316732563" type="string">
  <stringvalue>disabled</stringvalue>
 </entry>
 <entry name="run_command_terminal" mtime="1316732563" type="string">
  <stringvalue>&lt;Control&gt;&lt;Alt&gt;T</stringvalue>
 </entry>
 <entry name="panel_main_menu" mtime="1316732563" type="string">
  <stringvalue>disabled</stringvalue>
 </entry>
 <entry name="show_desktop" mtime="1316732562" type="string">
  <stringvalue>&lt;Control&gt;&lt;Alt&gt;d</stringvalue>
 </entry>
</gconf>

What should happen:
I think unity --reset should delete these strings which will reset settings to their defaults instead of setting new, wrong settings.
