That is Super_L is being viewed as a key not a modifier.

As I said, this is only for trying to create new shortcuts.
If I type mod4-t, I get a gnome-terminal since I created
that shortcut quite a while ago.

I do not need to have a graphical tool, a text based method would be
fine.

thanks,

If someone knows how to do that, please answer.

Actually you can work around this particular problem by changing your
keyboard map. But after that you'll have the same problem as i have,
that is the Super key can't be a modifier for shortcut of normal
applications like Gnome-terminar or Epiphany :(

[ details omitted ]

Shaun McCance suggested that I use the text-based configuration
editor, which I find adequate.

I do consider this a regression and filed a bug at bugzilla.gnome.org
<http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=441061>.
