it is a centrally managed mechanism to give focus to a given plasmoid. one 
action == one item on that page. since no one has provided a way to extend it 
further with additional shortcuts, such as plasmoid specific ones as yours 
needs/wants to, it hasn't gained any additional features.

not currently.

one possible approach would be to check Applet::contextualActions() for 
actions that have a valid globalShortcut() and add those entries to the page. 
another possibility would be to add an action collection to Applet just for 
such global shortcut actions, but that seems like that would be a) overkill 
and b) encourage developers to have shortcuts that don't appear in the context 
menu.

patches welcome.
