Regression: Context Menu key does not send a QContexMenuEvent

    •  9fc7fcb4c90f9fdc5bb3581609a1d5b01cfb7076 (Windows) 87f16671c3848ffa2d505aaade1b1172176d59fa (Linux)

      Reproducible with the following minimal code:

      #include <QApplication>
#include <QLineEdit>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);
    QLineEdit edit;
    edit.show();
    
    return a.exec();
}

      With Qt 4.8, pressing the Context Menu key, results in a context menu.
      With Qt 5, no context menu is shown.

      Apparently the code in qkeymapper_x11.cpp in qt 4.8 translates the key to a QContextMenuEvent. That code seems to be missing in qt5.
