Bug description
Pressing the

button on the keyboard does not toggle the scroll lock light.Steps to reproduce
Press the
Scroll Lock
button.Expected behavior
Each time the
Scroll Lock

From https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/164247/how-can-i-use-the-scroll-lock-key-to-toggle-the-back-light-on-my-keyboard
xset q | grep -q 'Scroll Lock: off' && xset led named 'Scroll Lock' || xset -led named 'Scroll Lock'
Partial fix so that the light works; however, does not work on restarting operating system.
Additionally, have not checked that it works with Wayland.
Can this feature please be enabled by default, resistant on system restart, and (if required) works on Wayland?
Thank you
