[Bug 1160379] [NEW] 'Dead circumflex' in Unity keyboard combinations

[Impact]

 Unity keyboard shortcuts hint window lists  "Dead circumflex"  for
"Switches window of current applications" under "Switching" , instead of
"^" when using german keyboard. This is confusing .

In English, this is properly mapped to "`" so this appears to have lost
a translation somewhere. Might be better to map it to "^" in the
language pack as the German layout has:

[Test Case]

 * Switching to german keyboard 
 * Hold Super key down, until unity shortcuts are seen

[Regression Potential] 
 
 * I dont see any regression potential
