[rkward-devel] Ctrl+S conflicting

[Roy Qu]

Seems that KStandAction::Save has Ctrl+S as default shortcut setting.
So maybe use KAction instead of KStandAction would fix this problem?
And In my laptop (opensuse 11.1 + KDE 4.2 rc1) ,ctrl+shift+S is used by
kopete.
So maybe we need another shurtcut key setting to avoid the conflict?
