The keyboard issue is to do with grabs. Games should be able to "grab"
the keyboard and receive all events without the shell intercepting Super
and Alt. Although a key combo to escape from buggy apps is also required
(e.g. Ctrl+Alt+Delete).
Historically Unity7 has done this (better than Unity8 but still) poorly,
but that's just a side-effect of Compiz using the Xkb extension which is
a bit broken by design (it explicitly does not honour grabs even when
you use them).
This is however not a gaming-specific feature, so really should be
requested separately. I suggest you split this bug in two.
