I'm not sure where to report this, but this item seemed to be the place.
The problem is that I can't find a way (that sticks) to remap the
'super' key function to a key that I actually have. I have avoided
Microsoft products for years and it is irritating to have to buy a

Best get going on
Based on Mark's comments my understanding of what we will do is this:
1) Add a Unity-specific GConf key which Unity reads to determine if the
Super key function(s) should be disabled. This would be set to
disabled on OEM pre-installs but enabled otherwise.
2) First time user presses Ubuntu logo
Sounds reasonable. Need to check that it's fast-path in the common case,
though.

Should we just use xmodmap??
xmodmap -e 'keycode 133 = NoSymbol' # to disable that key.
xmodmap -e 'keycode 133 = Super_L' # re-enable that key.

Give the short time frame, I propose adding logic to Unity that defines
and checks a new gconf key to decide if super key functionality should
be enabled or disabled in Unity. Default would be enabled and for OEM
builds we can disable as needed.
We can provide a patch with this functionality to
Jerone, please ask Pat to assign someone to this from the OEM team.
