      Description

      See attached example.

      • handle keyPressEvent in a widget
      • user presses Ctrl+a (in Qt terms: Meta+a)
      • first event is for Ctrl
      • exected: second event is for key 'a' with key()==65
      • actual: second event has key()==1

      This is a behavior change wrt Qt 5, and I wonder what use it has, and how I'm supposed to handle it. It breaks the "Record Shortcut" functionality in Qt Creator when built with Qt 6.
