This is how it was done in Qt 4.
An issue with the current approach was that it did not consider
modifiers when setting a Qt::Key_* value, which would assign the same
Qt keycode for:
a = a(65)
Alt + a = ā(65) [here it should return a unicode value for 'ā']
This is inconsistent with the other platform plugins.
Also in the combination with a dead keys it was returning nothing in
the output.
