Description

Right now, `Super+S` triggers the present mode. I think it would be more obvious to just use `Super` for this purpose, similar to GNOME shell. Alternatively I think it would be worth to consider making `Super` open the main menu (currently `Super+Space`). What do you think?

Research direction

Start by locating the existing Super+S present-mode binding and the Super+Space main-menu binding in the shell. Resolve which shortcut behavior is intended, then verify that the selected Super key action works consistently in the desktop shell and does not conflict with the alternative behavior.
