[Interest] OS X Qt 5.2/5.3 keyboard modifier bug

[Tony Rietwyk]

Hi Paul, 

This sounds similar to a problem I have in 4.8.5 with OSX 10.9.   setFocus
or activate on the window does not work.  You have to click on the window
for it to activate correctly.  Same build works OK in 10.7.   Might be
related to Qt bugs 35659 & 33479. 

Regards, 

Tony
