Try:
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center?field.searchtext=gnome-keyboard-properties>

If nothing there, then you may wish to file a new bug.

$ locate gnome-keyboard-properties
/usr/bin/gnome-keyboard-properties
/usr/share/gnome-control-center/glade/gnome-keyboard-properties.glade
/usr/share/man/man1/gnome-keyboard-properties.1.gz
