Bug Description
To improve the user experience, I suggest the following changes in the default keyboard shortcuts :
- CTRL+ALT+L for locking the screen
- CTRL+ALT+DEL for firing the shutdown menu
These improvements will add better consistancy between the different DEs and also more comfort from Windows users. Myself, I use Xubuntu on my netbook and Ubuntu on my main machine and find the different shortcut for locking the screen between the two rather confusing and unecessary.

add a ctrl+alt+l shortcut to lock screen
using libxfce4ui 4.11.0-4
Manjaro distribution.
We already have the Ctrl+Alt+Del shortcut to lock the screen.
I Gnome/KDE, the default shortcut is Ctrl+Alt+L
Is it possible to add this shortcut to the default XFCE shortcuts ?
Here is a patch in /etc/xdg/
Thanks in advance,
Marc
