Like others on the bug, mine has the key, but it's not active, even tho
the window key (which I have mapped, logically, to various window and
other kwin functions) is.
Thus the original post, since it obviously doesn't work for everyone.
(FWIW, I could probably get it to work,, now that I know it's supposed to,
if I bothered screwing with the config. But it's not important enough to
hassle it so I probably won't unless I get bored some day.)

(And if that was the case, then it would obscure the fact that it /really/
pointed at bugs.kde.org instead of to, say, a malware site with a bugs.kd-
some-goofy-symbol-looking-like-an-e.org (which in plain text ends up with
an escaped numeric-code for the goofy e, so it's easy to spot), while
having a title pretending to say bugs.kde.org. Not so important for a
link claiming to be a bug link, but if you have a paypal account and get a
mail claiming to be from paypal, for instance... Tho if someone was
clever they could still post links to a "bugzilla" with "patches" posted
for problems that instead downloaded and installed botware or some such.
Which is my point. With plain text, I see the raw URL and can thus see if
there's any funny stuff going on with it. If the poster deems it
necessary to say what it is, fine, but I can see the address and decide
whether I trust it either way.)
