I got it up and running, but honestly, I don't know how. Mayby the shortcuts list was all messed up due to all my testing and this did the trick:
qdbus org.kde.kglobalaccel /component/kwin org.kde.kglobalaccel.Component.cleanUp
That might be it, as uninstalling or updating a script via UI (System Settings > Window Management > KWin Scripts) does not expunge the shortcuts list in ~/.config/kglobalshortcutsrc. But that doesn't explain why it didn't work in the first place. Hm, weird…

Nearly no shortcut is working with registerShortcut(). There are some, though, but it seems that every letter shortcut is rejected. Among the ones I tested are "Meta+I", "Meta+Ctrl+I", "Meta+N", "Meta+B", "Ctrl+Alt+B" … I made sure to test shortcuts that were not registered yet. But some shortcuts do work, for example "Meta+F4" or "Meta+Num+8" (if NumPad is enabled). A working example: print("started"); registerShortcut("Test", "Test", "Meta+F4", () => print("works")); "started" is always printed to the journal, "works" only after a shortcut that was really registered (like "Meta+F4") is triggered. There is never any error message in the journal.
