This is a follow-up to D22261
unfortunately the test plan is not working for me:
when I press the global shortcut on the lock screen then the display does not turn off.
however, this is not related to the new global action because "volume up", "volume down", "mute" and "play pause" are also not working for me on the lock screen
start a plasma wayland session
open systemsettings5 -> Shortcuts -> Global Shortcuts -> Power Management
assign a shortcut to "Turn Off Screen"
press this shortcut
(screen must now turn off -> this confirms that the shortcut is working)
move the mouse or press a key to turn the screen back on
lock the screen
press the global shortcut again
(screen must now turn off)

I did some more digging and I now believe that I'm facing a problem that's related to me running wayland.

KKeyServer has a compile-time switch for it's backend.
I guess this needs to be converted to a runtime switch similar to what was done here https://github.com/KDE/kguiaddons/commit/0fe2990dbad992a4925a7b7bee09b1cdfbe5a7a7#diff-928c366533ef47aba95b92e8767bc8ff
