--- Comment #4 from Ashark <ash...@linuxcomp.ru> ---
This is an interface issue. I also thought that the whole global shortcuts were
broken. But that is because there is no any indication that some global
shortcuts are not possible to be set.

In case of applications which do not have any global shortcuts, such as
Dolphin, Kmail and Dragon Player, you cannot understand that thing. But there
are applications (for example KNotes) that add possibility to assign global
shortcut for some actions. In that case, a corresponding cell have an arrow
which opens an interface to set a shortcut (see screenshot).

The interface when global shortcut is impossible to set is very confusing. See
the screenshot. For example, I am trying to set a global shortcut for 4:3
action, but it is for some reason jumping to local alternate shortcut. After I
found KNotes, I realised, that highlighting global cell did nothing, and I
actually was setting a local alternate shortcut.

To resolve, I suggest that instead of stupidly highlighting such cells while
another cell is actually unfolded, another kind of interface should appear and
say that setting global shortcut for this action is impossible. See my picture
as an example.
