SUMMARY

Hi there. KDE seems to regularly ship releases with double and triple usages of certain key combinations as shortcuts, who all even each other out, and KDE then tells to to manually check. 

Sorry, why do we need to set the standard to instantly delete files in Dolphin to Shift + Del, as we do since ever, and then also as an optional command to Ctrl+X? Like, whats the point? I am pretty sure I already used Shift + Del to delete stuff in Windows 98SE, and KDE luckily adopts that standard. 

Now, since the newest update, is Shift + Del set to "Cut" as well, and neither works. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go into Dolphin
2. Mark some file that you like to delete
3. Hit Shift + Del

OBSERVED RESULT

KDE spawns a message, that tells me that the shortcut is set for multiple commands, and it does not know which one you like. It does not say which shortcut that is, it does also not offer to spawn the shortcut application for you with the command pre-applied in the search bar, to handle this. 

EXPECTED RESULT

It just works. Shift + Del deletes the file

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Sorry guys. Could we just setup some standard, that does not allow, that such a setup ever ships? There needs to be some regulatory statement around this issue, it just comes back time after time

Prevent people from shipping double keybindings, particularly if they **did not test if it actually works** 
Thanks
