The string is displayed in English, i.e. as ‘Space'. Which is strange, 
since I remember this being displayed as ‘Mellomrom' in earlier versions 
of KDE (KDE 4). ‘Space' *is* translated as ‘Mellomrom' in the following 
three files (and also in a few other files, which didn't seem as relevant):

frameworks/ki18n5.po
frameworks/kio5.po
qt/kdeqt.po

Which file(s) do we need to translate to get the names of keys to show 
up translated?
