Hi, I'm using xfce4.8 on FreeBSD and facing an issue related to
superkey. I think the issue is very similar to Ubuntu's bug #568401.

Indicator applets open when pressing S or M key via NX, VNC
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-applet/+bug/568401
D key (alone) shows desktop over Xrdp
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1595871

How-To-Repeat:
 1. Start xfce4 via Xvnc (VNC is RealVNC)
   $ Xvnc :20 -geometry 1280x800 -depth 24 -rfbauth ~/.vnc/passwd \
   -bs -ac -nolisten tcp  -localhost -dpi 96
   $ DISPLAY=:20 startxfce4
 2. Connect to Xvnc session
   $ vncviewer :20
 3. Start some application via VNC ex. mousepad, xterm
 4. Type small p, will be treated as superkey.

Temporary-Treatment:
 Remove following lines.
 $ grep Super ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/*

Does anyone in same situation?

Regards,
