Indeed it is not. But it is great to know!

Nice :-)

Another idea I had when writing this bug report: music often can be controlled
by touching buttons on a notification. More generally, some apps have buttons
in their notifications. Would it be worth to be able to activate them from
KDEConnect?

entirely sure this is even possible in Android.

To scare my neighbors :-) I don't remember why I mentioned this. This would
probably not be a killer feature.

This is certainly possible since scrcpy does provide this feature. The screen
is turned on when scrcpy is run, or when the screen is right-clicked on the
computer. Turning the screen off is also possible by pressing a key on the
keyboard. See https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/#shortcuts

It's probably done by sending KEYCODE_POWER, KEYCODE_WAKEUP or KEYCODE_SLEEP to
the device
(https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/KeyEvent.html#KEYCODE_WAKEUP).
