Public bug reported:

I'm trying to set a shortcut for keyboard layout switching, but it's
impossible to use some keyboard buttons. Also, pressing some
combinations leads to unexpected results.

For example:

- Shift+Ctrl - impossible to set
- Shift+Alt - impossible to set
- Ctrl+Alt - impossible to set
- Shift+Ctrl+Alt - impossible to set
- Shift+Alt+Space - this combination is being detected as "Shift+Space"
- Cmd (Win) + any two or three keys is impossible to set (works with 4 keys 
though).

Since Shift+Ctrl and Shift+Alt are very popular shortcuts (due to being
default in Windows for ages), not being able to use them in Ubuntu is a
pain.

Reproduction steps:

- Open gnome-control-center
- Go to "Keyboard shortcuts"
- Try to change any shortcut to one from my list

System info:

Ubuntu 20.10
gnome-control-center:
  Installed: 1:3.38.1-1ubuntu1
  Candidate: 1:3.38.1-1ubuntu1
