Description

System Information
Operating system: WIN10 64bit
Graphics card: GF GTX 660

Blender Version
Broken: 2.80, 98f00a3eb526, master, 2019-04-03

Short description of error
Blender build-in template 'ui tool simple' - wont work as addon.
The ui tool from addon is registered ok, there is new icon added on left toolbar, but tool bl_keymap does nothing.
Left click should scale active object
Right click should toggle objects selection.

bl_keymap = (
        ("mesh.test_scale", {"type": 'LEFTMOUSE', "value": 'PRESS'},None ), #wont work
        ("object.select_all", {"type": 'RIGHTMOUSE', "value": 'PRESS'}, None),  # wont work 
    )

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Install addon file, with custom WorkSpaceTool definition:

simple_addon.py1 KBDownload

Using LBM, RMB with new tool active, does nothing.
Thing is - after reloading scripts with:

bpy.ops.script.reload()

The tools starts to work.

I think that the root cause it probably the same as in T60766
