Description Kusi 2015-09-20 17:15:46 UTC 
I want to use single character keyboard shortcuts in the main view. Instead of Ctrl-I, I choose "F" for the filter window. However, this interferes with the terminal view: "F" is not usable anymore in the terminal, but the filter view is focussed instead. Inconsequently, the default "Ctrl-I" does NOT focus the filter bar.

Please omit keyboard shortcuts for the main view when focussed on the terminal view, such as plain characters (must), or CTRL+C, CTRL+A, CTRL+E (I care less for these). On the other hand, F3 (split) and F4 (close Terminal) must still work.

The behavior now is anyways not consistent, as written above


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Control->Configure Shortcuts
2. Custom shortcut for Filter Bar: "F"
3. Terminal view (F4)
4. Try to write "fdisk" (not possible :) 


Expected Results:  
omit single character shortcuts in Terminal view

I cannot enter the correct version of dolphin in BKO. Reproducible in 15.04.0

Well I have lots of such shortcuts, in a vim with my left hand kinda mode. I would love this not to be a problem anymore.

reproducible on Arch Linux, dolphin 17.12.1

This is reproducible with Dolphin 18.12.2. Confirmed, although a truly "correct" implementation seems difficult to me as it is not clear which keys should be interpreted and which ones shouldn't be.
