Public bug reported:
I frequently use the Super + [0-9] keyboard shortcuts to switch to
specific applications. However, these shortcuts usually fail to work
when executed quickly. In order to ensure a successful application
switch, I have to hold down the super key for at least half a second
(long enough for the launchers to appear on the left) before pressing a
number key. If I press the number key too soon after starting to hold
down the super key, Unity simply acts like I had not pressed the number
key at all. It either shows the Dash if I let go of the super key fast
enough or if I keep holding it down, it shows the shortcut overlay.
This was a problem in 11.10 and is still a problem in 12.04. It really
breaks my flow when it happens and I end up holding down super and
mashing the number keys repeatedly until the right applications finally
comes up.
