I will probably merge it and afterwards I will fix the issues e.g. if any other modifier is pressed when the Meta timer ends then the ShowDocks action shouldnt be trigerred but the timer should be restarted. 2. That means that the globalshortcuts class will be adjusted in order to track the modifiers that are pressed, Super, Shift, Ctrl and Alt, I dont know if there are any more... 3. Afterwards the hack that is relevant to X11 and was copy pasted from Plasma Activites Explorer in order to track when Meta is released is not needed any more and the new infrastructure will be used. We will play with this with iterations and through kde bugs tracker in order to fix any issues There is also a chance that the user will be able to enable/disable that behavior from Latte Preferences in case some users hit corner cases that break their workflows.
