I am not totally sure whether I understand the question correctly. I try to answer nevertheless.
There are some things the power button/slider does independent of any application. It powers on the device if it was off, and it forces the device to power off,if you hold the button for 20 secs or so in the off position. In combination with the home or light button, the power button/slider can trigger a factory reset. The power button also awakes the device from suspend state.
Any application can add functionality to the power button. The different applications of KSM (the menu proper speaking, the text viewer, the image viewer, the ini file manager, and so on) do not add any new functionality.
Other applications do. With nickel, KOReader or any application of the Pbchess package running, a short push on or slide of the power button/slider puts the device to sleep. With nickel, holding the power button a little longer powers the device off (maybe this is also the case with Pbchess, I never tried).
As for a sleep cover, I cannot remember exactly, since I do not use one. But I think it is the task of each application to handle it.
I try to say it another way: Under nickel the functions of the button(s)/slider and sleep cover are always the same, irrespective whether nickel was started from KSM or not. This is true also for KOReader and the Pbchess applications.
