Public bug reported:
When I press Super in Unity 3D after the latest Unity updates, the
launcher icons are overlaid with their shortcut numbers, and that's all
that happens. Right-click on launcher icons still opens quicklists which
can be interacted with, but other than that the whole desktop stops
responding to any input, mouse or keyboard. Basically, triggering this
bug renders the desktop completely unusable.
This is extremely reproducible during normal use, since Unity is
dependent on the Super key for the most commonly-used keyboard
shortcuts, including opening the dash. The only workarounds I found so
far are to do a hard reset or switch to a tty and enter unity --replace.
Unity 2D, GNOME Shell, and my other sessions still work fine.
