I haven't tried this myself, mainly because the one dialog I create in my
Android Qt app is designed for user interaction and has ok/cancel buttons
on the bottom (yes, not standard for Android.) However, if its a
non-interactive dialog, can you call setFocus() on the dialog to force the
focus to the dialog? Would that solve the catching of keypresses? Just some
thoughts, may not work - I don't really know.

Like I said - haven't had to try setFocus() for this use casea, but I have
used setFocus() in desktop apps to force focus to go where I want for
usability purposes.

Cheers!
