            Bug ID: 432267
           Summary: Do not activate capslock when pressed together with
                    another key
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: 5.20.90
          Platform: Other
                OS: Other
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk

SUMMARY
If a shortcut is defined for a combination involving some special key, such as
capslock, numlock or scrol lock, this will also activate its function and the
shortcut will end up having an unwanted feature.

Example: Like most users, I use alt+tab to navigate between windows, but I also
use the workspaces and I need a shortcut to do the same. So I defined
capslock+tab for that.
But this activates the key function, even if another key is pressed before.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add the cited shortcut to the capslock key + some modifier (like alt, in
this case)
2. Put a browser on one desktop and kate on another
3. Try alternating using the defined shortcut 
4. Now you have the capslock active whenever you type something in your text 

EXPECTED RESULT
If it was pressed next to another modifier key, the capslock should not be
activated.
