--- Comment #4 from Peter Wu <pe...@lekensteyn.nl> ---
After an upgrade to Plasma 5.8 on Arch Linux, I noticed that pressing Meta
gives the Kickoff menu and indeed, pressing it again does not hide it.
Previously one could already use Alt+F1 to toggle the menu.

The new "Meta" shortcut gives:
method call time=1475665148.784542 sender=:1.18 ->
destination=org.kde.plasmashell serial=488 path=/PlasmaShell;
interface=org.kde.PlasmaShell; member=activateLauncherMenu

while the "Alt+F1" shortcut results in:
signal time=1475665160.428196 sender=:1.14 -> destination=(null destination)
serial=636 path=/component/plasmashell;
interface=org.kde.kglobalaccel.Component; member=globalShortcutPressed
   string "plasmashell"
   string "activate widget 196"
   int64 3600500

For some reason the Meta binding also tends to disable itself after some
activity. That is, after logging in, the Meta buttons shows the Kickoff menu.
After "some activity" (nothing special, I don't know the trigger), the Meta
button has no longer effect.

Personally I will probably be disabling this Meta shortcut since it is used as
modifier for many keybindings, just reporting it here in case it helps.

FYI, the commit adding this feature is:
