Nevertheless, these shortcuts are configurable, at least in KDE it's easy to change
default fullscreen shortcut. Personally I change all Ctrl+Shift+something combinations
for actions I use to something else because I'm used to Ctrl+Shift sequence for keyboard
layout change, and X11 prevents use of other Ctrl+Shift+something shortcuts in this
case.
