Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ubuntu-desktop

Shift-F10 keyboard shortcut should, IMHO, emulate mouse right click
(which usually brings up a context menu in whatever application that has
focus).

But when compiz-fusion is enabled, compiz-fusion *overrides* Shift-F10
to mean Slow Animations (at least when System->Preferences->Appearance
is set to Extra). This is disturbing.

Using Shift-F10 to emulate mouse right-click an old MS Windows heritage
I think, just like Alt-F4 (for closing a window), that people coming
from the MS Windows world use. (Is there some other "standard" keyboard
short-cut in the Linux/Unix world to emulate right click?)

Work-around: Install compizconfig-settings-manager, run it, navigate to
General Options -> Actions. Expand the "General" node. Find "Slow
Animations", confirm that it is set to Shift-F10, and set it to
something else.

Running Ubuntu 7.10.
