Custom shortcuts do not work in Mageia 6 KDE

[dbg]

I have several 'Send Keyboard Input' custom shortcuts that work in Mga5 but do not work in Mga6 (KDE 5.8.7)

In Mga6 KDE go to System settings/shortcuts/custom shortcuts. Open the "Examples" section and select "Type "Hello"" The trigger for this shortcut is CTRL+Alt+H and the action is "Shift+H:E:L:L:O". If you put a checkmark next to "Examples" and "Type Hello" and then press "Apply" that shortcut should be activated. If you open some program that takes keyboard input (konsole or kwrite) and press CTRL+ALT+H it should type "Hello", but it doesn't.

Other shortcuts, like the ones under "Screenshots" do work but not ones that "Send Keyboard Input". I have cauldron running in vbox and keyboard shortcuts work correctly in KDE 5.10.4. I've searched bugzilla and Google but found no info. Will Mga6 be getting an update to fix this problem? Should I put in a bug report?

The former maybe if you go for the latter - hopefully that makes sense

Just for reference, can you add an actual use case for this?

Opened bug 21758

Use case is when you have to repeatedly type in a long string of characters. I have the URL of my website as a shortcut so I don't have to type in dennis.homelinuxserver.org when I send someone a link. Also, I have a shortcut for the root password. Is this the best security practice? Probably not. It is very convenient. I only do that on my desktop machine, not on the laptop.

You are aware that any other GUI application running as your user can grab that password?
