How to close Plasma Desktop Shell Scripting dialog?

Hi,

it seems that xdotool doesn't send CTRL keys anymore. If you make a script that changes the wallpaper:

qdbus org.kde.plasma-desktop /App local.PlasmaApp.loadScriptInInteractiveConsole "$js" > /dev/null
sleep 1
xdotool search --name "Desktop Shell Scripting" windowactivate key ctrl+e key ctrl+w

The last command (xdotool) finds successfully the dialog, but sends the "e" and "w" keys without CTRL! Why?
