Yes, that is also what I understand.

 From what I remember, but I could be wrong, context works well if you 
have for example two dock widgets at the same level. With a main window 
and a dock widget, however, I would like the shortcut of the main window 
to work when any child of the main window except the dock that redefines 
my shortcut has the focus, and I couldn't find a way to do this with the 
context.
