Strangely Alt+F1 and Alt+F2 work just fine for me.
Try GNOME 3.
In Windows, I believe, you cannot even assign system level shortcuts to applications, e.g. try to make any application react to Win+R - your app just won't be able to intercept this shortcut unless the app reads events directly from the keyboard driver.
Read above. VirtualBox is able to cope with that even on Windows, and I can't see why wineconsole can't do that too.
I guess this bug is INVALID/WONTFIX.
I'd leave it as enhancement until somebody proves it is not feasible.
