A rechargeable (via USB) wireless keyboard with an attached wired mouse.

No batteries in the mouse to run flat. Plenty of space in the keyboard case for a big Li-ion battery. The mouse is small and lightweight.

Does not seem to exist.

Something maybe better... https://en.wikipedi...otovoltaic_keyboard
Appears to have a built in backup battery [Vernon, Feb 24 2018]

The most still has a wire though. That's annoying. Keyboards I don't mind if they have a wire, since they move around maybe 2 inches in a typical week. Also, I have a wireless mouse. It has 2 AA batteries (more correctly 1 battery consisting of 2 AA alkaline cells) that have so far lasted a year. It is noticeably heavier than a regular mouse. I don't mind this. Actually, some gaming mice come with lead weights to personalize the mouse. If light weight is needed, Shirley a small lipo, say an 18350

[+] because I wanted one of these a decade or so ago.

It's possible doable without being a commercial product. Starting with a rechargeable,wireless keyboard, a r,w mouse and a USB cable :

1) remove battery from mouse

2) plug usb cable from keyboard to mouse.

Or, you could use the same setup, but have a powered, induction mousepad, which would save having to recharge anything.

I had a Microsoft wireless mouse. It has slots or 2 AA batteries, but I found that it worked just fine with only one. That made it a much more comfortable weight. I have no idea if any other models will do that.

They don't have this?

Maybe they think "If it's wired sometimes why not leave it wired all the time?" to which I would say "Can't you say that about anything that's rechargeable?"
