Ctrl+key wouldn't work quite nicely due to the lack of keys that could be
easily associated to Attachment, unlike most Kontact keyboard shortcuts which
are well thought out.

I think Ctrl+Alt+A would be fine, considering Plasma is transitioning to using
using Meta/Super/Windows for system and desktop keyboard shortcuts.

There are precedents for Ctrl+Alt+firstletter in KMail, the composer, and
Kontact, whereas Ctrl+Shift+firstletter is more related to standardized
shortcuts (Ctrl+Shift+Z = redo) or to selection/tabs.

Weirdly enough, when I attempted to set Ctrl+Alt+A, it didn't work. I assume
this is because Plasma already has Ctrl+Alt+A for a default shortcut (activate
window demanding attention), so Ctrl+Shift+A might be more suitable to avoid
conflicts.
