New description:

 Now:[[BR]]

 Then opeining/switching tab keyboard must be set to english layout,
 otherwise Ctrl+W hotkey won't work


 Common sense:[[BR]]

 If i press hotkey in gnome it works whatever layout is used. Super+W and
 Super+Ц (russian) have same effect. W and Ц are on same key. Similary
 works most Gnome and Windows software.


 Note:[[BR]]

 combination Ctrl+Ц works too, if tab was activated with active English US
 layout and then layout was changed.
