I confirm. I used Meta key to this kind of shortcuts (trigger words) like my
recurrent username. When I try to use it blocks the window until press again
the Meta key. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to System Settings -> Custom Shortcuts -> Edit -> New -> Global Shortcut
-> Send Keyboard Input
2. Set the trigger to be Meta+V
3. Set the action to be "v:m:o:r:e:n:o" without the quotes
4. Apply the changes
5. Test shortcut in a text editor

OBSERVED RESULT
Output in to text editor or other text field is "morenomarin" and blocks the
window until press again only Meta key.

EXPECTED RESULT
Output in to text editor or other text field is "vmorenomarin".
