/**
* @short Represents a keyboard shortcut
*
* The KShortcut class is used to represent a keyboard shortcut to an action.
* A shortcut is normally a single key with modifiers, such as Ctrl+V.
* A KShortcut object may also contain an alternate key sequence which will also
* activate the action it's associated with, as long as no other actions have
* defined that key as their primary key. Ex: Ctrl+V;Shift+Insert.
*
* This can be used to add additional accelerators to a KAction. For example,
* the below code binds the escape key to the close action.
*
* \code
*  KAction *closeAction = KStandardAction::close(this, SLOT( close() ), actionCollection());
*  KShortcut closeShortcut = closeAction->shortcut();
*  closeShortcut.setAlternate(Qt::Key_Escape);
*  closeAction->setShortcut(closeShortcut);
* \endcode
