@matsonfamily: To replace indicator-applet with indicator-applet-
complete:,

1) Install indicator-applet-complete.
2) Remove both indicator-applet (the mail icon) and indicator-session (the 
on-off button) from the gnome panel.
    (Right click on icon, and choose "Remove From Panel" from the menu.)
3) Add indicator-applet-complete to the gnome panel.
    (Right click on panel background, and choose "Add to Panel..." from the 
menu.)

The important part is to prevent indicator-applet from running in your
session.  There is no need to remove it from your machine.

If you do not remove indicator-session from your session, you will end
up with two on-off buttons on your panel, which won't kill you.
However, I don't remember what happens to the conflicting Super+s
shortcut if you leave indicator-session running.  (I have since gotten
so frustrated with the whole indicator-* family that I have removed them
entirely.  I just use the old fashioned logout menu and volume controls
now, and I am much happier.  Maybe the next step is to get rid of the
rest of Gnome...)

I did not test running /usr/bin/gtk-window-decorator by hand after
indicator-applet to see if it would steal back the key bindings. I just
observed inconsistent behavior with the bindings and looked at the
position of indicator in the execution order in each case.  Perhaps
there is something deeper going on than simply execution order.
