<apachelogger> mgraesslin: hey, can bug 212796 be implemented upstream?
<ubottu> Launchpad bug 212796 in kubuntu-default-settings "Kubuntu lacks default key bindings for Switch One Desktop Down/Up/etc" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/212796
<mgraesslin> it could but I don't know if it is a good idea to enable those shortcuts by default
<mgraesslin> kwin has many, many shortcuts and if we enable too many of them by default app developers start to complain
<apachelogger> mgraesslin: well, as I understand it those short cuts are used by compiz anyway, so I wonder...
<mgraesslin> yeah I know, we get complaints about our shortcuts being different to Compiz again and again ;-)

If you convience the upstream developers to implement the shortcuts, they will end up in Kubuntu, however since upstream seems unwilling to do this, I do not see why Kubuntu would want to draw complaints onto itself by occupying shortcuts that have not be considered worth using by the upstream developers.
