Tomeu, I had a word with Bernie regarding the issue and he says that probably newer versions of the X server actually implement XUngrabKey() with keycode= Any Key as specified in the man-page. He said he had seen the source code and someone (whot) reworked that function sometime back, probably fixing up the bug.
I tested sugar-emulator on Ubuntu Maverick and it seemed the keybindings were working. I tried Alt+ Tab and it worked. It seems the component has already been fixed.
