[Qt-interest] How install shortcuts for multiple widgets?

Hi all,

what is the "right" way to install shortcuts (say Ctrl-S) without
getting the "... ambiguous shortcut ..." error?

If I have an application menu with an action using shortcut Ctrl-S and
e.g. several other widgets which also install this shortcut I get the
above error.

So the question is, how to setup up an applications-wide shortcut Ctrl-S
that saves a file A if triggered in a texteditor widget A if that has
focus, or saves a file B if triggered in a texteditor widget B if that
has focus?

I tried using the shortcut-context and setting it to WidgetContext but
without luck.

Any hints?
