It's a way to basically trigger certain actions (or not) through keystrokes, depending on the active window (among other things). This feature is hidden in the Settings under Shortcuts > Custom Shortcuts.
There you can define a group that matches certain windows, like Firefox, and remap Ctrl+W via a so-called global shortcut (which is misleading, since the group defines that only Firefox windows should be matched). Some documentation I found online is this PDF from KDE [1].
Yes! Thank you; this is exactly the kind of thing I was looking for. I have several global shortcuts defined already, but what I had missed was the ability to add "conditions" to groups - that was the magic I was missing to catch the shortcut selectively by application. Thanks again; this will be *so* useful :p Paul
