SUMMARY
Using "Shift + Up/Down" you can enable auto-scrolling of the document. Pressing Shift or Ctrl pauses this scrolling. However, pressing Ctrl again resumes it and I consider this behavior to be a bug, since it is incredibly inconvenient when, for example, you switch between desktops (Ctrl + Meta + Left/Right/Up/Down) and your document starts scrolling by itself.

I offer two solutions to the problem:
1. Remove the ability to disable auto-scrolling from Ctrl.
2. Leave Ctrl with the option to turn off auto-scrolling, but do not let it turn on auto-scrolling.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Okular
2. Turn on auto-scrolling (Shift + Up/Down)
3. Pause auto-scrolling by pressing Shift or Ctrl
4. Perform any keyboard shortcut where there is Ctrl
5. That's it, you have auto-scrolling enabled.
