I don't know about kdm in HEAD, but I think it should offer some options like 
this: 
a) show username list and user/pass fields. 
b) show user's name + username list and users/pass. 
c) show user's name list and pass field. 
The last one being the most weird I think it would make much sense for 
desktop-only where there are less than 10 users (any common family which owns a 
computar) and name repetition is not likely to happen... Maybe kdm may catch 
the name repetition and in that cases show the username. 
I said totally removing the username concept for the user as a very utopic long 
term idea. 
I think [a] and [b] are already implemented in kdm, am I wrong ? 
Would it be too hard to implement [c] (I think some desktop distributors will 
thank it, maybe we should ask them). 
About Logout "username" and the log out dialog, I don't see why the username is 
really needed, the name should be enough. 
Thanks 
 
PS: Is it posible to copy this request to KDE without removing it from KDM till 
it's close here ?
