Keyboard shortcut in Save File dialog not working

[borondics]

This might be more of a canvas or widget-base issue.

• [x] What's wrong?

  The usual Cmd-C, Cmd-V, Cmd-A keyboard shortcuts don't work in the Save File window filename text box of Save File widget using the Save as... button. When using the mouse and selecting Copy or Paste it is fine though.

• [x] How can we reproduce the problem?

  Load any data and try to save it.

• [x] What's your environment?

• Operating system: Mac OS X 10.15.7

• Orange version: Orange3 3.28.0.dev0+29e992f, latest orange-widget-base and orange-canvas-core

• How you installed Orange: GitHub master / pip install

I was able to replicate this on my Mac. This topic seems quite popular on the Qt bug tracker: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-85679, https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-17291.

@markotoplak, thanks for the hint. This is actually easily fixable. At least on my machine/os.

At today's meeting, we said that adding a menu with Copy, Cut and Paste to file widgets (see https://github.com/biolab/orange-canvas-core/pull/158) would look too weird, so this can't be fixed until Qt developers recognize this as a bug and fix it, or provide another way to add those shortcuts.
