please, please, please, revert this! I also noticed this change when
going from 1:2.34.13-0ubuntu4 to 1:2.34.13-0ubuntu4.1. For me, the
function keys change between workspaces.  When some programs, such as an
xterm, have the mouse focus, they steal the definitions of the function
keys. Other programs, and the background don't.

Likewise, after many, many years of using these shortcuts (long
predating ubuntu or metacity), my aged brain cannot rewire itself. For
the sake of necessity, I tried converting to alt-Fn instead of Fn, but
my fingers get confused most of the time, and it seriously affects my
workflow.

One should definitely be able to assign the Fn keys as desired - user
level preferences should always override the app defaults.
