Changes
-------

Submitted with commit 8eabbf6725386e716b7536c71a9181dfe5d959f0 by Albert Astals Cid to branch master.


Repository: kxmlgui


Description
-------

Add a warning at the createGui stage about ambiguous shortcuts being found in the same action collection.

This is usually a developer issue, but the error message about ambiguity will only show up when someone tries to use the shortcut, so it is relatively easy to miss if you do not try all your actions via a shortcut.

Also if the involved shortcut is one of the non primary shortcuts of edit_cut + deletefile, just give it away, since it's Shift+Delete being fought over as part of our defaults being ambiguous.

Testing
-------

gwenview without any patch gives the warning
gwenview with https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/129717/ doesn't give the warning (since it's using the standard actions instead of a own one for delete)
gwenview with https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/129718/ doesn't give the warning (since it's manually removing Shift+Delete for cut)


Thanks,

Albert Astals Cid
