I have not examined what happens within qt yet. I have since my first post
build 2.2.2 (on linux) but nothing has changed. I have tested with a number
of windowmanagers (including twm). Using xev, I receive keypress events for
CTRL+T both when capslock is active and not so the event is not eaten by X11
or the wm.

I am crossposting to kde-core-devel:

Have any of you seen this? I have tested with kde apps with the same result
(no surprise). Is there anything known that blocks this combination?
