Hi Laszlo,


I’ll have to look a bit more, but looking at the code I see that 
QKeySequenceEdit accepts both the ShortcutOverride and the Shortcut event, so 
it should take precedence over any application-defined shortcut. If/since that 
doesn’t work, 

But since you write cmd+q (and considering your recent patches) I think that 
perhaps you are on macOS, and it might be that our macOS shortcut code doesn't 
respect the focus widget’s override for application level shortcuts.

Bottom line anyway: this should already work, so if it doesn’t, I’d consider 
that a bug.

Making it possible to configure the max length of the recorded QKeySequence 
could be a useful feature addition. I don’t see that this is possible today, 
but implementing it might not require much more than replacing the use of 
QKeySequencePrivate::MaxKeyCount with a property.
