So... It seems we are indeed looking at a Qt regression.
https://github.com/RJVB/shortcut-test-qt5 That's an adapted version of Qt's menus example which adds a shortcut test action with a configurable shortcut string and commandline options to add it to the menubar and/or the context menu, plus an option NOT to use the native menubar. I cannot get shortcuts like Ctrl+! but also Meta+! (resp. Command+! and Ctrl+! on Mac) to work unless the action is a menuitem in the native menubar. That's with Qt 5.7.1; with Qt 5.6.2 they work as expected. Writing them as Ctrl+Shift+1 or Meta+Shift+1 makes them work, but that's not really a nice solution... Is there anyone who can try the above example with Qt 5.7.1 or newer, possibly compare it to Qt 5.6?
