Ok, that fixed it for me! Indeed, Show Contact was the default for 's' and Show Source in Catalog was the default for 'S'.
I'm not sure if this distinction was always in QS, but I doubt it. I'm certain I've never heard of it before. If it's easy to figure out from git history if it was added post B54 I'd defer to that if it's a bug or a feature otherwise I don't really have an opinion.
