Change dash lens hotkey
Although CCSM offers a way to change some of the Unity hotkeys, some are not there.
You cannot change the unity dash lenses hotkeys like Super+M or Super+F for music and files lenses.
To disable or change the hotkeys youll need to edit the lens files.
Open nautilus and navigate to the lens files.

Open the corresponding lens folder, and edit the *.lens file.
There is a Shortcut=<> entry. Change the letter or remove it to disable the hotkey.
If you want to disable the lens add the ShowEntry=false entry.
To apply the changes run
$ setsid unity
Works in Ubuntu 12.04
