I'm trying to intercept the system menu shortcut on Windows (alt and space).
It appears as though Qt eats it without ever passing it to the application?!

I don't think it's Qt that eats it. It might be the OS.
In any case, if non-portable solution isn't a problem you can dig to it using native event handler:
@
#include <windows.h>bool MyWidget::nativeEvent(const QByteArray&, void* message, long*) {
MSG* msg = (MSG*)message;
if(msg->message == WM_SYSKEYDOWN) {
// msg->wParam is the key code
}
return false;
}

I can see in QKeyMapperPrivate::translateKeyEvent() that the event is being sent.
Maybe it is the OS eating it. I'll try your suggestion :-)
