This approach sounds good, so I'll be waiting your configs... =D

I have tried pressing Fn+F5 several times in a row, but neither wifi nor
bluetooth switches off. My wifi connection was active during testing, but I
guess wifi can be switched off although it has an active connection ongoing?

These ones seems to be working quite nice, but working hotkey would be a
little bit easier in a every day use. Is there any ways to analyse this
problem, e.g. checking some logs or something like that?
