Repacking the Copilot key to Krunner in Default

Brainstorm

Hello, I propose repackaging the Copilot key in the KDE Plasma Desktop Environment so that it opens the KRunner application by default. Most users do not know how to configure it. Examples: https://www.reddit.com/search/?q=Copilot%20key%20repack%20on%20linux&cId=3e74c72a-b54a-4c09-96d2-40509e28478d&iId=274a4ba4-10f7-4c24-99fd-96e8a6eda1fe

Therefore, I think it makes sense to configure it to open Krunner by default. I am open to your thoughts.

It could come in handy to have it do something useful by default

I like this idea. Seems like a very sensible default.

Showing my support. The Copilot key on my laptop is currently useless until I find a way to remap it. Having it be set to anything, especially something useful like Krunner, would be hugely appreciated.

Woah, thanks for sharing! I completely missed that :laughing: And here I am, using input-remapper to do it instead. I’ll check it out!
