Bug Description
TEST CASE:
1. In keyboard shortcut setting, set keybindings CTRL+Fn to switch to workspace n
2. In Workspace 1, open a terminal and give it focus
3. Switch to Workspace 2 with CTRL+F2
4. Switch back to WS1 and check the content of the terminal
ACTUAL RESULT:
Terminal shows the string ";5Q"
EXPECTED RESULT
Content of the terminal is unchanged
This is even worst with Firefox for example, because CTRL+F4 is the shortcut to close tabs, which means that when firefox has focus, and I switch to WS4, it closes the active tab.
