Details

To produce an @ on a German keyboard you have to press 'Alt Gr' (the Alt key
right from the space bar) and 'Q' together.

If I try this in a forms field of a HTML page, the QA menu becomes active (item
Precheckin Tests).

If I try the Euro € (AltGr E), I get the Edit menu (item Undo)


Bad for entering email addresses and such. :)

Similiar produced characters like
    µ (AltGr M),
    ~ (AltGr +),
    | (AltGr <),
    { (AltGr 7),
    } (AltGr 0),
    \ (AltGr ß),
    ² (AltGr 2) and
    ³ (AltGr 3)

seem to work.
