I don't usually use super+left/right to switch to left/right window, but on my test setup for Gnome 44 I notice that sometimes when logging in the PaperWM default switch to left/right sometimes doesn't work - or on super+left it moves the window.

I've disabled the default Super+left/right gnome shortcut (which tiles the window left/right) and the issue doesn't appear to be happening now. Not sure if that was the problem.

Anyone else on Gnome 44 also seeing this?

To Reproduce
Unfortunately I can't get this to reproduce consistently. It happened periodically after logging in (didn't seem very consistent). I also think I saw it happen after a lock-screen.

Expected behavior
PaperWM keyboard shortcut should always work.

I think we can just remove the conflicting shortcuts in the set-recommended-gnome-shell-settings.sh and document it with the other recommended settings.

My Super + Left/Right work fine but Shift+Super+< does not for me even after disabling everything I can find in the keyboard shortcut stuff.
I pulled the fixes-gnome-44-support commit into my local develop branch..hence it says develop branch below.

I experienced the clash with Gnome's 'view split on Left' & also fixed by disabling the Gnome shortcut. Hadn't noticed until seeing this as I normally use PaperWM's 'switch to the next/previous window'

@Lythenas given your skills in bash/sh (the only bash I do is bashing my head against a wall when I try figure it out!) - could you give this one a go when you get time?

Ha, this looks quite similar to #233.

Remove Gnome tiling left/right shortcuts (#518)
306543d 
Based on the discussion in #516 I added gnome 44 shortcut removal using
the same `set-with-backup` bash function used for setting other
recommended gnome-shell settings. I haven't researched if there are any
unwanted consequences of disabling these shortcuts like this, but it
seems to work fine for me. It would be great if someone else with this
issue could also test this before merging. Also, the backup
`restore-gnome-shell-settings-YYYY-MM-DD.sh` file was successfully
created with the original values stored inside.
