I don't know whether it is appropriate to add comments to an old thread, but since it is still open ?I guess it is OK?
I encountered this when customizing keyboard shortcuts in gnome- terminal. There was no obvious way to remove one once it is in place. I remembered seeing something like this in the main system settings > keyboard > shortcuts UI, so I went there and found that `backspace` will clear the shortcut. It says so right on that UI. So why isn't this simply added as a label to the gnome-terminal shortcut UI? Seems like precendence and simplicity would both win here, as well as any newcomer trying to configure the shortcuts and getting frustrated when they can't simply clear any!
