For everyone who uses BSPWM as their window for KDE I have gone through the work of adding all of the default sxhkdrc keybindings to KDE Global Shortcuts (KGS), you can find the relevant lines of my kglobalshortcutsrc file here.

Why did I do this?

Well the thing about BSPWM (and in a way so is KDE) is that it follows the unix philosophies of do one thing and do it well and to work well with other programs. I was already using the plasma workspace so it didn't really make sense to use sxhkd when I am already using KGS. It took a good amount of time but I finally converted all of it.

Why might you want to do this?

You are already using BSPWM as a window manager for KDE Plasma and

• Admire the unix philosophy
• Want to make your system SLIGHTLY more minimalistic by reducing installed packages

Why might you not want to do this?

• You don't use KDE Plasma (I recommend trying it with latte dock)
• You already have a very customized sxhkdrc (sxhkd's syntax is more functional than KGS)

Feature Request to KDE Developers

KDE's Global Shortcuts would be much nicer to user if they could understand a syntax like sxhkd uses. What can be two lines in sxhkdrc can be 8 different items in KDE's Global Shortcuts. Also it would be super cool if you guys could accept issues on your github mirror.
