ALT+F7 (Linux console to X switch) results in X picking up the key press

When switching from a Linux console back to X with Alt+F7, X detects the
Alt key as being pressed (in KDE for example, this switches focus to the
active application's menu and in xterm it results in garbage
characters). Shouldn't this key combination be ignored by X?
The relevant section of my xorg.conf:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard1"
Driver "kbd"
Option "AutoRepeat" "250 30"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc104"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
EndSection
The keyboard is connected to the PS/2 keyboard port and has 104 keys (I
counted :P)
