            Bug ID: 477046
           Summary: shortcut causing window switch often causes stuck

    Classification: I don't know

SUMMARY
I wanted to use Ctrl+= as a shortcut for Yakuake open/close. However, after I
open and close it with Ctrl+= the application I switch back to often thinks the
Ctrl key and treats keypresses as shortcuts when I try to enter text.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have Yakuake and Kate installed.
2. Set the Yakuake open/retract shortcut to Ctrl+=
3. Start Yakuake
4. Open Kate and open some tab in it, put the cursor in the text area.
5. Use Ctrl+= to show Yakuake (important: you need to release Ctrl between this
step and the next one).
6. Use Ctrl+= to hide Yakuake.
7. Press 'w'

OBSERVED RESULT
The open tab closes as if I typed Ctrl+w

EXPECTED RESULT
The 'w' should be typed into the tab text.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Gentoo Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.9
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.112.0
Qt Version: 5.15.11
Graphics Platform: Wayland

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The worst case for me was when the switch back brought me to Firefox and I
tried to input W resulting in Ctrl+Shift+W (close the current window with all
tabs) instead.
