If an action is mapped to the Windows key without combined with an
additional key, then combinations with other keys are likely ignored.
IOW only use "Windows-key + One-or-more-other-key" combinations, remove
or change any shortcut that does use the "Windows-key" only. AFAIK the
single key vs key combinations is a general Linux issue, it at least was
an issue.
