           Summary: Login Manager: UID ranges -> better usability
           Product: systemsettings
           Version: 4.2.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: chris.reiter at gmx.at


Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

in login manager you can configure the range of UIDs that are shown in KDM.
But it is a bit awkward to say: "system usersare below XXX/above YYY" when you
want to configure the behaviour of the login-able users - it's complicated
thinking.

System UIDs: 
below: [1000 ]
above: [29999 ]

This is not what is the question. What it wants to ask is *what users should be
DISPLAYED*.
This IMO could be fixed by just changing the text, no coding needed:
"System UIDs" -> "Displayed UIDs"
"below:" -> "from:"
"above:" -> "to:"

This is exactly the same, but MUCH more understandable.
