When deleting a widget with an empty name, the confirmation dialog is somewhat confusing. In case of an empty name the widget's type could be used instead.

Keyboard integration is quite bad. I would expect a widget to be deleted if I press the del key. Instead, nothing happens.

I hope you do realize QLC+ 5 is a work in progress, right?
Saying something is "quite bad" at this stage is pretty obvious.

I did not intend to offend anyone, I'm well aware that it's a work in progress. It's natural that there are these kind of issues in an alpha release. I just started to document all the issues I run across, that's why I asked where I should post them. I also intend to work on them myself, you can expect a first pull request in a few days.

I also know first-hand that it's much more interesting to work on new features than fixing bugs or polishing a keyboard integration. However, these kind of issues are perfect to start get to know the code as they are often quite isolated.
