Better might even be if Qt made it configurable programmatically, so that 
the sequence can be enabled/disabled/configured to fit in with every other 
standard key sequence in KDE.  This way KDE users won't have to be 
subjected to the Windows-oriented default chosen for Qt.

Helping users is only going to get harder if settings are split between 
KControl and some Qt-centric thing.

Don't think of a bug as a problem.  Think of it as a call to action.
