Public bug reported:
Normally when trying to enter a standard alpha-numeric key in the
Keyboard Shortcut program you are warned that using this as a shortcut
will cause it to become un-usable for typing, however this following by-
passes this warning and allows you to bind an a-z key to a shortcut,
'consuming' this key.
1) Find an Action within the "Sound" section ("Desktop" section does not suffer
this problem)
2) Bind a Action to Control - z (any alphanumeric key works here, z for this
example)
3) Bind this same action to z (the "Shortcut field will now display
"XF86AudioPlay")
4) z Key is now consumed and is unable to be used for typing even if this
action is un-bound.
