On a german win2k box typing { opens the Threads view - there seems to be some clash between the key combination 'Alt Gr'+'7' (which on german keyboards produces the "{") and 'Ctrl'+'Alt'+'7' (which is the shortcut for the Threads view). The same holds true for the [ character - when typed the search results are opened. In both cases the character also appears in the editor. 'Alt Gr' is the right Alt key on german keyboards - don't know what it's called elsewhere.
This happens with Q-Build 20040120 on Sun JDK 1.4.2. Q-Build 20031211 works fine.
Yes unfortunately the JVM represents the national AltGr-<key> shortcuts as Ctrl-Alt-<key> in key events. We should avoid binding any actions to Ctrl-Alt-<key> shortcuts because any key chars produced by these key events are treated as legitimate typed characters. Reassigning to ui for further evaluation.
