Positive-diagonal QR decomposition preserves a complex structure

Let $K$ be block diagonal with $2\times 2$ blocks $J=\left(\begin{array}{cc}0& 1\\ -1& 0\end{array}\right)$. If a real invertible matrix $A$ commutes with $K$, its QR decomposition $A=BC$, with $B$ orthogonal and $C$ upper triangular with positive diagonal, has both $BK=KB$ and $CK=KC$. Indeed $CK{C}^{-1}=B^{-1}KB$, so $E=K^{-1}CK{C}^{-1}$ is orthogonal and upper triangular in $2\times 2$ blocks. Orthogonality forces its off-diagonal blocks to vanish. Its diagonal blocks are $J^{-1}{C}_{i}J{C}_i^{-1}$. For $C_i=\left(\begin{array}{cc}a& b\\ 0& d\end{array}\right)$ with $a,d>0$, this block is $\left(\begin{array}{cc}d/a& -b/a\\ -b/a& (a^2+b^2)/(ad)\end{array}\right)$. Orthogonality of its columns forces $b=0,d=a$, and hence each block is the identity. Thus $E=I$, proving the claim.
