           Summary: Cannot assign global shortcut "Meta-Shift-+" on german
                    keyboard (becomes Meta-* and is ignored when used)
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: kde-bugzilla at thequod.de


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.92) 
OS:                Linux

I cannot assign global shortcut "Meta-Shift-+" on german keyboard (becomes
Meta-* and is ignored when used).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
0. Switch to german keyboard (or use a key which is mapped differently for
"Shift")
1. Open Global Keyboard Shortcuts
2. Define a custom shortcut
3. Press Meta, then Shift ("Meta-Shift" is displayed)
4. Additionally, press "+"


Actual Results:  
Meta-* gets assigned, but using it does not work (it gets ignored).

Expected Results:  
The shortcut "Meta-Shift-+" should get assigned.

It appears to happen for keys where the shifted variant is mapped to a
different key.
