also, you can take advantage of this behavior....one simple example would be:

i take random notes so that i can paste them in forums as my queries.
whenever i do that i write the subject (i.e. topic heading) and then hit "tab" so that when i do "type text" the subject gets inserted in the subject field and the remaining text in the text field.
There can be many other uses of this behavior if u choose to explore it.

so I made a shortcut for it: ctrl-opt-cmd-v.

As Chris pointed out the keystrokes from QS are indistinguishable from
the ones from the keyboard.
If you have your trigger set to activate on release QS will wait until
you release the v key but not the modifier keys.
The target application will see the keystrokes coming from QS and the
modifier keys you are still holding.
It will interpret it as a series of ctrl-opt-cmd shortcuts.

The easiest thing to do would be to add a delay in your trigger setup.
This would give you time to release the modifier keys before the
action starts.
