[Bug 515682] Re: Change "Show Desktop" keybinding to Super+D

[Andrew Starr-Bochicchio]

Three months to review a one line patch that was even spec'd at UDS-L.
Oh well...

@ Nigel:

You tagged this patch-needswork. Could you please elaborate on what
needs work? The currently proposed branch doesn't touch upstream code at
all. It patches debian/metacity-common.gconf-defaults. I suppose I could
re-write it to patch metacity itself, but upstream hasn't expressed any
interest. Things like setting different default keybindings seems
completely acceptable to do at the distro level. That's why we even have
tools like dh_gconf that make it dead simple to change a default gconf
setting in the packaging without patching the upstream source.

Bug description:
Current "Show Desktop" keybinding is Ctrl+Alt+D. Super+D is simpler, is more consistent with other Compiz window management shortcuts (Super+E for expo, Super+W for scale, Super+A for scale all workspaces), and is a familiar keybinding for Windows users (Windows uses Super+D for the same function).
