Do you happen to know how KDE's shortcut management system works, esp. if it's possible to export a scheme and import it elsewhere? It seems that it should be possible, also to provide multiple schemes with the install (say a legacy scheme and a new, updated scheme), but I've never got that to work (not even on Linux).

This is the likely reason why Qt has swapped Qt::CTRL and Qt::META by default on that platform, but Konsole deactivates that feature. As a result, shortcuts are identical to what they are on other platforms, but not in line with what's standard on OS X.

There is an added benefit of not using the Control key for shortcuts: `Copy` can be the usual `Command-C` instead of `Ctrl-Shift-C` on other platforms; idem for the `Paste` shortcut. I've adapted the shortcuts of a few other actions to the key combinations OS X uses for those actions.
