Comment 13 for bug 969235

One thing that I didn't fully realize until today:

Both GNOME Shell & Windows 7 use Super+Left/Right to half-maximize. I think the Design Team needs to carefully consider whether breaking keyboard shortcut compatibility with other desktops is worth it.

I think I'll change the Ubuntu GNOME Shell shortcuts to match since it's really just gsettings shortcuts and Unity will be switching to gsettings (maybe for 12.10?) and I think Unity/Compiz should avoid reinventing shortcuts if they're already supplied by gsettings-desktop-schemas. Doing that will still lose compatibility with GNOME Shell on other Linux distributions.
