Bug Description

Super+3 is both app launch shortcut and window manager shortcut. See the attachment. Besides, none of Super+number window manager shortcuts work even if there is no matching keyboard shortcut.

There should not be that much application shortcuts for various apps by default. It is fast enough and easier to remember to use Ctrl-Esc (to launch whiskers-menu) and type (part of) the name.

The window manager shortcuts are actually Super + Keypad number.
