  Target Milestone: ---

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. I recently noticed, that hardcoded keyboard shortcuts (space, F2) were
introduced in Dolphin, activating the so called "selection mode".

CHANGE PROPOSAL
As for as I understand, it is the design philosophy of KDE to be customizable
in mosts aspects, especially regarding the workflow of the user. Actually, this
is the selling point (imho) that distinguishes it from DEs like GNOME.
I therefore would kindly propose the idea of:
Adding the ability to change or disable the selection mode shortcut.


Further, it might be a good idea to prevent hardcoded changes for keyboard
shortcuts in the future, possibly by introducing respective design guidelines?
