Hi,

this is my keyboard layout configuration
setxkbmap -model microsoft7000 -layout pl,de,pl,us -variant dvorak,,,intl
with a switching policy restricted to application and
no main and 3rd level shortcuts.
There is an alternative 'Ctrl+Alt+k' shortcut enabled.

In the dvorak keyboard layout the 'k' character is where in the qwerty layout the 'v' character is placed.
The problem is that when I change the layout from dvorak to qwerty 
the physical key combination hasn't been changed i.e. I use the old keys positions which for qwerty are Ctrl+Alt+v now to change the keyboard layout to the next available.

Unfortunately this is a problem with how Qt treats shortcuts.
