Set system poweroff screensaver on PocketBook ereaders

Hi.

I'm looking for a way to change the poweroff screensaver on my PocketBook ereader so that when I use Koreader the screensaver is the cover of the book I'm currently reading with koreader, rather than the last one opened by pocketbook's reader.

I found a .lnk (microsoft link) in system/logo/ called "bookcover.lnk" that indicates the path to the last cover image to use.

It would be rather easy to change this link to the image created by koreader: there are bash scrips to create .lnk files that could be easily run on the PB.

My question is: what would be the easier (and cleanest!) way to launch a command each time koreader is started or (even better) is there already a way to easily have koreader change the system poweroff screensaver?

Found this github issue, seems like the way PB handles the screensaver changed in last firmwares (an image in /mnt/ext1/system/logo/bookcover won't necessarily be used as the cover once the device is shut down, but the img linked by bookcover.lnk will).

Thanks!
