Thanks. No, I had no reason to assume that it was Alt+F1 I should use. 
On w32 you can use C-ESC or the windows keys.

I see no reason that GNOME should not adopt to this. It is really a 
usability issue for w32 users. It would certainly be attractive to 
windows users if those keys worked - and I guess that is one of the goals.

But this is of course of topic here.
