styleHints()->setShowShortcutsInContextMenus(true) has no effect

      On macOS, the shortcut in context menu is not shown by default.
      To override this behavior, 

      styleHints()->setShowShortcutsInContextMenus(true)

      can be set.
      However, this does not have any effect in Qt5.15.
      This works in older Qt versions, e.g. Qt5.14.

      Sample code is below and a sample project is attached( qtbug109590-showshortcut.zip ).
      In order to show the context menu, press secondary click anywhere in the window. 

      int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);
    a.styleHints()->setShowShortcutsInContextMenus( true );

    QWidget w;
    w.setContextMenuPolicy(Qt::ActionsContextMenu);

    QAction act("Copy", nullptr);
    act.setShortcut(QKeySequence::Copy);
    // act.setShortcutVisibleInContextMenu(true);  // Workaround
    w.addAction(&act);

    w.show();

    return a.exec();
}
