** Description changed:
Many keyboards nowadays come with special keys that allow easy access to
certain features of the system. It would make all sorts of sense to link
as many of those to actual stuff as possible.
Concerns: keys might be wrongly mapped?
Short-term target: KDS
Mid-term target: upstream
Proposed associations:
Qt::Key_Battery => Battery Plasmoid
Qt::Key_WWW => default web browser
Qt::Key_LaunchMail => default email client
+ Qt::Key_Help => KHelpCenter
To be considered:
MPRIS (that way working for ever player?)
Qt::Key_MediaPlay => MPRIS PlayPause()
same for Pause and TogglePlayPause
Qt::Key_MediaStop => MPRIS Stop()
Qt::Key_MediaPrevious => MPRIS Previous()
Qt::Key_MediaNext => MPRIS Next()
Out of scope:
Qt::Key_Eject - usually already wired at either hardware level or handled by udev/other magic
