For me, it works just fine. Are you sure you're hitting shift together with
control and alt? On a US keyboard, you need shift to get to `%`. (`C-M-5`
gives you the digit argument, which may seem like nothing, depending on
what you type next.)

I do, whenever I need it. :-) It's not a very convenient binding, given
that you need to press three modifiers at once, but I don't need it that
often, so it's fine.
