Description Sami Boukortt 2013-04-20 12:00:00 UTC 
When I create a new activity, I like to assign a global keyboard shortcut to it. However, the newly created activity does not appear right away in System Settings → Shortcuts and Gestures → Global Keyboard Shortcuts, making it impossible to do it without restarting kactivitymanagerd (which is inconvenient).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new activity.
2. Go to System Settings → Shortcuts and Gestures → Global Keyboard Shortcuts → activity manager.
3. Try to assign a keyboard shortcut to the newly created activity.
Actual Results:  
“Switch to activity ‘[new activity]’” does not appear as an action to which a shortcut can be assigned.

Expected Results:  
It should be possible to assign a shortcut to that activity without restarting kactivitymanagerd.

The reverse is also true: Deleting an activity does not unregister the shortcuts entry in System Settings.

I can confirm this behavior with KDE 4.10.5.

I see multiple shortcuts for an activity which appear to to confirm C Feck that deleting an activity does not unregister the shortcut in Systen Settings
