Christopher M. Penalver, as I've been saying from the beginning, I couldn't 
care less whether this behaviour is changed in Gnumeric or not. In my opinion 
it is a bug in Ubuntu (the window manager?), as no program should be able to 
grab possession of the whole desktop and the keyboard including the On/off 
button like that. The work-around is trivial and using LibreOffice instead is 
not an option for me because of a much worse and likely related bug there: 
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40141. 

In fact the bug in LibreOffice is likely so severe BECAUSE of the
underlying bug in Ubuntu. Treating the behaviour I described here as a
bug in Gnumeric totally defeats the purpose and I feel that I am wasting
everybody's time including my own if this is where we are heading.
