So, in that case, when exactly will this "change" be uploaded to Ubuntu? After Hardy is released? I can already imagine the number of reviews appearing all over the internet complaining about how multimedia keys in Ubuntu Hardy don't work with the NumLock on, complete with a link to the above Ubuntuforums thread, and this bug. Surely that isn't a very nice image to portray for a LTS release.

Also, is it really a problem in gnome-control-center, or gnome-settings-daemon or something else? I mean from what I see, all gnome-control-center does is modify a few GConf keys belonging to gnome-settings-daemon. And since changes in the keyboard shortcuts settings dialog are reflected in the GConf key values correctly, but problems exist with the NumLock and keyboard shortcuts, shouldn't the bug be associated with another package? What exactly is it that listens for the keyboard events and executes instructions based on the keyboard shortcuts? In my opinion, that should be the package that is marked to be affected by this bug.
