Great.
  
  Yes sure, and you can imagine how many angry mails and bug reports I get when 
things break. I made the experience that touching our X11 implementations 
always results in regressions. And nobody notices them in the testing period. 
Unfortunately I can give you a long list of regression we had in Plasma 5.10 
only on X11. This makes me being extremely conservative when it comes to 
changing the X11 code base. The number of developers fully understanding X11 is 
really low in our community and most of them are working on Wayland now.
  
  Nobody is going to detect if we introduce a regression in kglobalaccel prior 
to the release. And due to the nature of the frameworks distros will ship them 
and then we as the Plasma team have yet another shit storm because we have a 
broken global shortcuts handling. So yes I'm extremely careful when it comes to 
touching this code base.

I'm sorry I didn't notice. I first noticed this review and it has no dependency 
set. It looked like the code got dropped.
