Using an azerty keyboard, I want to assign  "Switch to Desktop 2" to
Meta+é ("é" is located on the "2" key without shift).

I do this in System settings , Global Keyboard Shortcuts, KDE component = KWin, then select "Switch to Desktop 2" and type Meta+é in Custom. But, when I press Meta+é (actually Windows key + é), Meta+É is displayed, and the shortcut does not work.
If I change  ~/.kde/share/config/kglobalshortcutsrc to replace Meta+É to Meta+é, it does not work either.

Using Kubuntu 9.04
