Bug#598015: warns about missing shortcuts

Package: metacity
Version: 1:2.30.1-2
Severity: normal

On my fresh squeeze system I disabled a couple of shortcuts for
functions that I don't particularly care about.

In the config file they end up like thus:

| weasel at rubicon:~$ cat .gconf/apps/metacity/global_keybindings/%gconf.xml 
| <?xml version="1.0"?>
| <gconf>
| 	<entry name="panel_main_menu" mtime="1285415784" type="string">
| 		<stringvalue></stringvalue>
| 	</entry>
..

This causes metacity to complain about these entries on startup:

| weasel at rubicon:~$ metacity --replace
| Window manager warning: "" found in configuration database is not a valid value for keybinding "minimize"
| Window manager warning: "" found in configuration database is not a valid value for keybinding "activate_window_menu"
| Window manager warning: "" found in configuration database is not a valid value for keybinding "unmaximize"
..

If the emtpy string is valid for 'no shortcut' then metacity shouldn't
complain.  If it isn't then the Keyboard Shortcuts config thing
shouldn't set it like that (and instead use what is correct).

Cheers,
weasel
