My Lenovo ThinkPad annoyingly has the printscreen key between the right ctrl and alt keys, so I not infrequently find myself accidentally holding it down and then 100 spectacle windows are opened. This is Not Amazing™ and hangs the system prtty bad if enough windows were opened before I noticed. Not sure if this is something that KWin could inhibit, or KGlobalAccel, or the affected app itself. Let's start with KWin. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
