           Summary: Konsole shortcut "Ctrl + Shift + X" for clearing
                    scroll and reset appears as problematic
           Product: konsole
           Version: 2.6
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: venkat.boddu at ymail.com


Version:           2.6 (using KDE 4.6.0) 
OS:                Linux

In Konsole application, we using following shortcuts very often to do the Copy
and Paste. Having "Ctrl + Shift + X" as default shortcut for "Clear scrollback
and Reset" and Keys "X, C, V" adjacent to each other in QWERTY Keyboard Layout 
is appearing problematic and posing the annoyance that, if a user intent to
press the Copy shortcut"Ctrl + Shift + C" in QWERTY Keyboard and then he is in
danger of pressing the "Ctrl + Shitf + X" as both "X and C" Keys on
side-by-side.

It would better, if we choose any other default shortcut for "Clear scroll back
and Reset" instead of "Ctrl + Shift + X"

Clear scrollback and Reset: Ctrl + Shift + X
Copy: Ctrl + Shift + C
Paste: Ctrl + Shift + V




Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1) When you are using the Konsole application for very busy need such as
Administrating the Production Server or etc.,

2) Please only concentrate on the Konsole of your sever and try to use the
shortcuts for doing some copy and paste work.

3) Now, after doing some serious work then try to copy some content from
konsole and by mistake(or by intent) press the "Ctrl + Shift + X" instead of
"Ctrl + Shift + C"

Actual Results:  
In real, because of QWERTY Layout Keyboard's side-by-side "XCV" characters and
my hand mistake, Konsole got cleared and now, I have no way of get some  output
copied from the production server konsole.

Expected Results:  
In my mind, I expected copy to happen
