Last night I "upgraded" from 1.4.xxx to 1.5.658.56.
That is not the latest version.

I responded to your post in great detail - all of which you ignored. Your only answer was to imply that i'm not bright enough to find the current newest version. The most recent STABLE ver -as you well know - is 1.5.658.56 which is what I just installed and the previous stable version was the one I filed a bug report on. I prefer not to use "snapshots" and I have no reason to believe that they are any more likely to be free of this particular bug.
In the context of this conversation your one line reply was dishonest and i'm baffled by your hostility.

If you're not using the latest version, then the rest of your post is irrelevant. Try the latest build, or wait a day or two for the 1.6 Stable build, then test it again and see if your result is any different to mine, then it might be worth investigating.

@Pesala
it's really not fixed even in latest SS, I can confirm. And the official explanation of "won't fix, dead key" really makes no sense, as the "fix" is really 2 lines of codes as it can be seen in den_po's VivaldiHooks, the definition of keyvalue 192 is simply missing/removed since 1.5 branch.vivaldi.jdhooks.hookModule('_getPrintableKeyName', function(moduleInfo) { moduleInfo.exports[192] = '`'; });
I'm using italian qwerty kbd but in Windows it's really not a problem setting multiple kbds, in control panel I just enable English (UK) and English (US) kbds and enabled the switch on the traybar so I can have 3 different switchable kdb settings.
Setting EN/US kbd the `/~ key reacts on the address bar, but not in Vivaldi settings/keyboard key assignments. Unless the VivaldiHooks fix-graveaccent-hotkey.js is activated.
Setting EN/UK kdb the key is `/¬ but strangely enough it even reacts in keyboard assignments, even without the fix active. Btw # is on the total opposite (right) side of the kbd, it's not about which symbol it's needed a key to print, it's a matter of keyboard scan codes -
@Gwen-Dragon of course, nobody is criticising you for anything
In any case, as long as there's VivaldiHooks with all its workarounds to the issues and Vivaldi behavior changing, I can wait with no problems whatsoever until everything gets implemented natively. I invite also others doing so.
Keep calm and use VivaldiHooks. -

If you want, you can file a bug report about this Ctrl ~ issue, which will notify the devs that there is a need for a fix.
I would suggest that a bug for this is raised.
You could refer to previous bug (won't fix) and add a note that a workaround has been provided in VivaldiHooks so ask if it should be looked at again. -

Whoops, sorry ma'am

@iAN-CooG as a external tester I can't give reason, why the devs didn't add the patch of Den_po yet.
` on US/RU keyboard has the same keycode as ö on DE. Physically these are different keys.

In the ancient time when the dead-key shortcuts appeared really "dead" I didn't remove them.
During the middle ages when I heard the bug was marked as "Wontfix" I didn't remove them.
Now in 1.13.1008.36, they revived! Ctrl+`, Alt+`, Yeah! hohoho...
Am I the only one with luck?But still cannot add one. So I don't think there's any changelog about this.

But still cannot add one.Try the latest Snapshot. I was able to assign Ctrl+` and it worked. On my Extended UK keyboard, ` is a dead key used for typing àèìòù

As said before up on this same thread, the UK key scancode for the backtick is different from the US/RU/JP keyboards scancode.
Vivaldi setting page for assignment of keyboard shortcuts doesn't react to any backtick if US/RU/JP keyboard layout are set.
I've just tried again right now, only UK keyobard layout lets Vivaldi sense the backtick key in keyboard assignment.
Once set, I can switch back to US or JP layout and the key is still reacting so it's actually set correctly.
I really wonder about it since a long time, being Japan a huge market for Vivaldi, and hopefully also USA, a bit more of care on different keyboard layouts should be taken. -

@Pesala
Thanks for the hint.
Not only UK keyboard layout. FR also works. But you have to find the right key first. On mine, (US)/ = (FR)`.
I didn't test the others.For all that has the issue:
So since the ` shortcuts can be used again in 1.13.1008.36 or later, if you want to add a ` shortcut, use @iAN-CooG@Pesala's method:
Add UK (or another, if Vivaldi supports) keyboard layout in your OS settings;
Activate Vivaldi; Switch to UK keyboard layout; Assign the ` shortcut you want;
Switch back to your own keyboard layout and the shortcut will still work.
(Then you can remove UK keyboard layout.) -
If anyone knows the relevant changelog for this change, please tell me.
