    Description

      When you set a keyboard shortcut for QAction and add it to a QMenu, then show that menu as a context menu of a widget, it will not be possible to trigger the action with the shortcut (only clicking with mouse or pressing navigation buttons like Enter will trigger it).

      I've attached a small test case. It was checked on Windows 7 x64, Qt 4.8 and Kubuntu 11.10, Qt 4.7.4.

      I tried to debug it on my own and saw that QMenu::keyPressEvent() seems to check only for mnemonics of the action, not its shortcut.
