Slingshot shortcut key
I hear a lot of people complain about the shortcut key for Slingshot not being intuitive. They expect it to be simply be the "Super" key on it's own instead of "Super+Space", which also quite makes sense to me. It's simple and builds on the habit/knowledge that most users have from other shells and operating systems.
At the very least you'd expect some function for such an central key in the keyboard real estate. I also recommend this blueprint for this key: https:/

I find myself agreeing with this. If it is done, it should work as to have slingshot appear after super has stopped being pressed, as to avoid conflicts with other 'super key' shortcuts. --ottorobba
In my opinion, Windows users prefer Super key (Win key) only, because they feel that is more intuitive, and Mac users prefer Super (Cmd key) + Space. The keyboard layout is important, because it's not the same to have a Window key or a Cmd Key, and the OSes act in a different way.
