[Bug 45846] When a menu is opened, KDE & Konqueror shortcuts stop working

[kko]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdebase

In konqueror:

1. Open up "Location" -menu, either with mouse or with "Alt-L".

2. You will see the option "New Window _____ Ctrl-N", if you pressed
Alt-L it will be highlighted too, by default. (With mouse you could have
something else highlighted.)

3. Press Ctrl-N.

-> No response.

4. Press Ctrl-Fx to switch desktop.

-> No response.

I see no reason for keyboard shortcuts to stop working, when a menu
(showing the very same shortcuts, none-the-less!) is open.

I suspect this is a wider KDE issue than just konqueror.

For the same issue in Gnome please see bug 32860.

** Affects: kdebase (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed
