Hi,
I noticed the Password and User kcm module recently, and I am very confused by
its existence:
* (click the button to change your image) -- what image? why do I need an
image? Reading the code suggests that it is the .face image, in which case it
directly and incompatibly conflics with the kdm kcontrol module
* Name: Does this get updated in /etc/passwd if I change it?
* Organisation: Where is this used?
Email address: Where is this used? what if I have more than one e-mail
address? how do I know which one I need?
* Smtp server: where is this used? What is sending email?
* password promot: What password prompt? kwallet password prompts? kdesu
prompts? kdm? all of the above?
IMO this module adds nothing to what is already in KDE, and in fact is deeply
confusing.
