I need something to invoke from command line, as shortcuts and right click fail :(

Have you tried the Cashew, which should still be available?

I did a quick check of Plasma Desktop's D-Bus interface, and it does not seem to offer an interface to do this unfortunately.

does shortcuts and right click fail for a new user?

Thanks for the quick replies!
Thing is, I am testing a new desktop containment, that, once set, cannot invoke the settings dialog again with right click.
So I am stuck with the wallpaper and containment forever, unless i delete the activity and setup a new one.
It is just the problem, that the right click option to reach the settings is not implemented yet, so I thought that there might be a command line to open this settings dialog again:

Unfortunate... you may wish to ask for advice on the plasma-devel@kde.org mailing list.
