Public bug reported: The Super-W keystroke sometimes opens the dash instead of showing all windows. The behavior seems to depend on how long you hold down the super key. Tapping + releasing both the super key and w key will open the dash. Holding down the super key for more than about 0.5sec will open the spread, no matter how long you hold down the w key.
Oddly I can't reproduce the problem with other super- keystrokes such as Super-S or Super-T. It only happens with Super-W. A quick tap of Super-S will reliably open expo mode. To reproduce: 1) Quickly tap Super-W Expected results: The spread opens Actual results: The dash opens I can reproduce this on multiple keyboards from different manufacturers, so I don't think it's anything unique to the keyboard itself.
