            Bug ID: 310598

           Summary: Ctrl+number shortcuts assigned to change the number of
                    columns conflict with global shortcuts
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: gregbouzakis at gmail.com
          Hardware: Compiled Sources
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: contacts
           Product: kontact

Contacts uses Ctrl+{1,2,3} to adjust the number of columns but those conflict
with the global Ctrl+N keyboard shortcuts kontact uses in order to change the
displayed application.
That means that if you switch to contacts you cant move with the keyboard to
eg. kmail and get a "The key sequence 'Ctrl+2' is ambiguous. Use 'Configure
Shortcuts' from the 'Settings' menu to solve the ambiguity. No action will be
triggered." message as Ctrl+2 is assigned to both "Two columns" for Contacts,
as well as Mail for kontact.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open kontact
2. Press Ctrl+3 to switch to Contacts.
3. Press any of the Ctrl+1, Ctrl+2 or Ctrl+3 keyboard combinations.
4. Get conflicting shortcut informational message
