Can't use suggested workarounds (or I don't fully understand them).

If it were possible to assign keyboard shortcuts for gnome shell via
"system settings > keyboard" there would be no this bug report in the
first place, I think.

Strange thing is that some assignments do work. For example I can assign
Ctrl+Alt+T to launch calculator, "web browser" or "home folder", but not
terminal.

Even for web browser I can't use combinations with Super key. Eg.,
Ctrl+Super+T. It gets assigned OK, but does not work.

By the way I can't find neither "web browser" nor "calculator" key in
org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings (gsettings). It must be somewhere else.

My another observation that is different from original bug description
is that most default shortcuts actually work. Navigation, screenshots -
all work. Super+up/super+down maximizes/restores window OK. Although
Ctrl+Super+L does not lock screen, Super+S just passes 'S' letter.

My gnome shell is 3.4 already.

Title:
  gnome-shell most keyboard shortcuts not working

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  gnome-shell keyboard shortcuts stopped working. Specifically,
  Ctrl+Alt+t no longer opens a terminal, my maximization shortcuts no
  longer work, navigation shortcuts don't work.

  The problem seems that gnome-shell 3.4 has switched to gsettings/dconf
  for its keyboard shortcuts but Unity still uses gconf. System Settings
  in Precise was patched to support gconf but it ought to support
  gsettings also.
