Description

I've set Ctrl+< as the shortcut to show/hide Guake terminal in Ubuntu 11.10. With the upgrade do 12.04 this shortcut doesn't work anymore. I've tried also in a different pc with a clean install.

When I go to preferences window to set a new shortcut, it is able to recognize the Ctrl+< combination but afterwords it works with just < instead of Ctrl+<

Humm, it's something related to the way that our keybinder library (or maybe gtk itself, which I kinda doubt) parses the keybinding string. I've worked on a related issue today and I noticed that shift is being "resolved" while you type any other key, so instead of Ctrl+Shift+., you get Ctrl+Shift+>.

I'll figure out a way to fix it.

The problem is with the globalhotkeys C lib and an update to GTK+.
