It is really pretty! I like the whole lock screen and i must say wow! I am 
following the whole development for a long time and i am no programmer just a 
random KDE user interested in new technology. I just wanted to share some 
thoughts with you about the usability discussion. What about writing below the 
sliders something like: Slide to sleep // Slide to shutdown. 
For me that would explain the whole slider and also its usage. Just my 
opinion. I think it is really pretty and clear!
