1. set Trading Shortcut Key to Sell Market as 'S', i.e. on the chart you press S and that initiates a Sell Market Order
2. open trade window
3. choose Tab Set
4. uncheck "Use Config Name as Text Tag"
5. start typing in Text Tag edit box.
6. type letters that are not S
7. now type S ... it will not display S but it will trigger a Sell Market (assuming chart trading, etc. is enabled)

I'm on 2679 but I assume this bug should affect even the latest version.

You should not use single character keyboard shortcuts for exactly this reason. This is about how the Operating System handles these shortcuts and is not something we can do anything about.
