Bug 491214

SUMMARY
Latest version of kate for mac uses Option+number to switch across all tabs, but in some keyboard layouts that combination is reserved.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download kate from https://cdn.kde.org/ci-builds/utilities/kate/release-24.08/macos-arm64/ate-release_24.08-7679-macos-clang-arm64.dmg
2. Change keyboard layout to Spanish (add another input source) in macOS
3. Try to write code with some tertiary character using the Option+number, like: |@#

OBSERVED RESULT
In previous version "kate-master-7254-macos-clang-arm64.dmg" it worked fine, but latest one "kate-release_24.08-7679-macos-clang-arm64.dmg" has the regression, so uses Option+number to switch kate tabs, instead of actually printing the character as code.
This is likely due to some change in kate keyboard shortcuts.
These are the tertiary characters in number's row in the keyboard (13), including the section sign key, the minus key and the equals-plus key, excluding the backspace key: \|@#¢∞¬÷“”≠´‚
Tertiary characters that can be actually printed in kate (3): \´‚
There are other keys than numbers used to print tertiary characters, like Option+E for €, so other characters can be printed, and not even all of those characters are actually printed on keys in the physical keyboard, like Option+dot which is … or Option+ñ which is  ~

EXPECTED RESULT
Print all primary, secondary and tertiary characters as literal character instead of keyboard shortcut.
That can be a problem since keyboard shortcuts should be consistent across all keyboard variations, according to Apple Human Interface Guidelines, so having different shortcut combinations for each kb layout is not recommended.
