           Summary: Remapped Alt+` shortcut fails in application switcher
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: feffer777 at yahoo.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.1.3)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

When using the app-switcher (Alt-Tab), additional Tabs cycle thru open apps,
and the shortcut Alt-Shift-Tab cycles in reverse. However, I do not like the
reverse shortcut because it uses 3 keys and I find it inconvenient. So I remap
this shortcut to Alt+`

This works fine in kde-3, MacOSX and WinXP, but fails in kde4. I reported this
in a KDE forum: 
http://forum.kde.org/application-switcher-behavior-issue-t-22088.html#pid28567 
 and the mod who replied found the same behavior and requested that I report
it.

Alt-Tab switching is one of the few shortcut similarities between common gui's,
so this is important to those of us who work in mixed networks. Thank you.
