            Bug ID: 467263
           Summary: Ctrl-Alt-T doesn't launch konsole
    Classification: Applications
           Product: konsole
           Version: 22.12.2
          Platform: Neon
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: konsole-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: alkisg at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Ctrl-Alt-T doesn't launch konsole by default. One needs to go to `System
Settings > Shortcuts > Add Application > Konsole` to enable it.

Please enable that by default, like e.g. Meta+E is enabled for Dolphin or
Meta+. for the Emoji Selector. Otherwise, user supports and documentation in
thousands of other products, suffers. We cannot instruct users to "open a
terminal with Ctrl-Alt-T, run that command, and tell us its output" if we have
to fill two pages first with "how to open a terminal in a hundred different
desktop environments that the user might have"; and that's without getting into
the different translations of the UI.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Launch the latest KDE Neon or any other distribution
2. Press Ctrl-Alt-T

OBSERVED RESULT
Konsole doesn't open.

EXPECTED RESULT
Konsole should open.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: neon-testing-20230214-0250.iso
KDE Plasma Version:  5.27.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.104.0
Qt Version: 5.15.8

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
It happens in other distributions as well.
