Although the information is not from the original reporter  as requested .....

If the root cause is (as expected) that the value for "Add bookmark" in
standard keyboard shortcuts has been "magically" modified  from "Ctrl+B" to
"Ctrl+D", then I think the problem is out of the scope of this konsole product.

I can add extra check for "Ctrl+D" into the existing hack, but that is not a
good idea and does not scale. What about "Ctrl+W", "Ctrl+R", "Ctrl+K" and other
common keys?  That hack exists only because the default "Ctrl+B" is problematic
for a terminal emulator, nothing more. If users have intentionally or
accidentally assigned "Ctrl+D", then konsole needn't and shouldn't try to avoid
that mistake.

As for why "Ctrl+D" is magically introduced in your system,  I really have no
idea.
