clone 259740 -1 reassign -1 capplets retitle -1 gnome-keyboard-properties: altwin:meta_super must be renamed into altwin:super_win thanks
A note should be added to some README files to tell users that setting altwin:super_win is a good idea if they want to map Super to their Win keys, so I clone this bug instead of simply reassigning it to capplets.

Thanks for investigating this issue. I launched gnome-keyboard-properties and found that the option you want (mapping Super to Win keys) is called altwin:meta_super instead of altwin:super_win in the generated gconf.xml file. Denis
