iiuc that feature was even supported on kde3 and was removed by lubos with 
intent because of all the problems around it.

So this is unfortunately a won't fix. Which should not hinder anyone to 
implement it outside of kde. 

I am btw not really sure khotkeys should still be part of kde5. its broken, 
never really reached kde4 anyway and both lubos and i don't work on it 
anymore. And it failed to attract anyone else.
