            Bug ID: 39903
           Summary: Keyboard input conflict between GC-Prevue, etc. and
                    help viewer (hh)
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.8
          Hardware: x86

            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal

GC-Prevue 32-bit v23.4.6 2015102116

I discovered a keyboard input conflict that affects a few different CAD
applications I'm testing.  These tend to have many hotkeys, some of which are
unmodified character keys.  If their built-in help is accessed the Wine help
viewer (hh) loads normally.  But when keyboard input is attempted, in the
search box for example, any key that the main application has as a hotkey is
ignored and the application responds to it instead.

GC-Prevue is a freeware/trialware tool that exhibits this behavior.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Download and install GC-Prevuew 32-bit (the help panels and menu don't show
properly in the 64-bit version due to a different problem).
2. Use winetricks to install vcrun2010.
3. Execute GC-Prevue.  Close the ad window.  A new document window is opened by
default.
4. F1 to access Help.
5. Go to the Search tab and click on the search box.
6. Attempt to enter "query".
7. "q" is ignored.  GC-Prevue raises its window immediately and switches to the
Query function.  "q" is the hotkey for Query.

Copying and pasting "query" from elsewhere doesn't trigger the bug.  Directly
loading the help file with hh prevents it entirely.

In the Easy-PC demo the opposite problem is exhibited.  If the help viewer is
loaded then some of the hotkeys for the main application are ignored.
