There's already one (probably not the only one): https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=123038 >> F1 should take me right to the relevant page should it not? > ... and one for that.

We don't control what applications point the shortcuts to, we just document what they do. ;-) > Kind Regards, > Michael > _______________________________________________ > kde-doc-english mailing list > kde-doc-english at kde.org > https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-doc-english >
