SUMMARY
With introduction of automatic light/dark theme switching in Plasma 6.5, it would be great to also allow manual theme switching not just by going into the settings page, but by using a keyboard shortcut.

This would allow to completely replace third party tools (such as Yin-Yang - https://github.com/oskarsh/Yin-Yang) as many apps do respect the system setting of light/dark theme these days.

Sounds reasonable.

Switching to wishlist since this is a feature request, not a bug.
