Description
There is a strange bug where I can't type a space in the command line in Hydra although normal letters and digits can be typed! I've seen this twice but don't know how to reproduce it. My guess is that somehow the space key is being grabbed by another widget like a default button. I think the times this happened were after typing a command "open " while in shortcut mode. This brings up the open file dialog and the space brings up some other pop-up dialog. After closing those I think the bug appeared. Unfortunately I just tried that and it did not reproduce the problem.
Next time I observe this bug I'll try to figure out the steps that cause it.
Seems almost certainly a Qt bug.

After clicking on a model pane thumbnail to hide or show a model, the command line does not accept space characters. Probably there is a binding on the model thumbnail pane which is capturing the space characters.
