Description
Hello, I found out that, for example, when I am trying to save a file pressing "Ctrl+S" with Russian keyboard layout, gps doesn't save. In most of other IDEs (qt-creator, eclipse, etc) shortcuts in Russian layout work good.
The way to reproduce: open GPS (20160515) in Linux, create a file and change it, change keyboard location to Russian, try to save the file by pressing "Ctrl+S".

Research direction
Reproduce the shortcut failure in GPS 20160515 on Linux by creating and modifying a file, switching to the Russian keyboard layout, and pressing Ctrl+S. Trace the keyboard shortcut handling from that reproduction; done means Ctrl+S saves the file in the Russian layout as it does in the default layout.
