Correction, the app as a whole gets the event.  But if the TextInput is
focused, it seems to accept the event so that the outer Keys.onPressed
doesn't see it.

Title:
  Modifier ignored when pressing a key if TextInput has active focus

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Triaged
Status in qtubuntu package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On a phone with a bluetooth keyboard connected, with the following
  standalone example, if I press Ctrl+T I expect the message "Ctrl+T
  pressed" to be printed on the console, but instead the Ctrl key is
  ignored and "t" is inserted in the text field.

  import QtQuick 2.4
  Item {
    TextInput {
      anchors.centerIn: parent
      width: parent.width - 20
      height: 100
      Component.onCompleted: forceActiveFocus()
    }
    Keys.onPressed: {
      console.log("key pressed:", event.key, event.modifiers)
      if (event.key == Qt.Key_T && event.modifiers == Qt.ControlModifier) {
        console.log("Ctrl+T pressed")
        event.accepted = true
      }
    }
  }
