Public bug reported:

Some custom shortcuts with super key will not work. The failing ones I
found:

Super + {1..9}
--------------

These will say

> Super+{Number} is already being used for Activate favorite app 9. If
you replace it, Activate favorite app 9 will be disabled.

That is not what happens though; rather the old binding is not
relinquished.

Super + o
---------

Assigning this gives no such notice as above, however it is assigned
disable orientation lock.

I followed the answer in
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1179858/disable-orientation-lock-
shortcut-super-o-in-ubuntu-18-04-gnome, namely

  gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys 
rotate-video-lock-static []
  log out/log in

and now the shortcut works.

Conclusion
----------

gnome-control-center should either say it's not possible to map such
combinations or honor the override.
