I've end up copying the source of TextArea ( /usr/lib/qt5/Sailfish/Silica/TextArea.qml ) and adding a custom signal called pressed. This signal is fired when the Keys.onPressed for the TextEdit [0] is fired. This signal send the KeyEvent object, so in order to stop propagation event.accepted has to be setted to true.
With this approach i've encountered several issues: 1- The enter key isn't recognised as an Qt.Key_Enter, but as Qt.Key_Return, so if you want to filter the enter key, you'll have to use `event.key == Qt.Key_Return`. 2- Although the shift is activated in the virtual keyboard, event.modifiers is always 0. I was expecting i could do event.modifiers & Qt.ShiftModifier in order to filter the Enter + Shift. 3- As Pekka Vourela said, only enter key and backspace send events.
