Summary
-------
Hi,
I started adding a warning label to kpassworddialog, then i noticed that password fields were used at various place outside a kpassworddialog or a knewpassworddialog. Take for instance kmail, konversation,
kdm, ... I was told the idea is that applications should use those dialogs, but the reallity seems different. Implementing the capslock warning in a new kpasswordlineedit allow all those apps to get the benefits.
This is my first contribution, I'm new to C++ and KDE and Qt in general. I tried copying from other sources i found, but there are still issues i can't resolve by myself yet :
- Memory leaks : i don't know were is it - should i delete the childeren widgets in the destructor?
- Formatting : i guess it refers to the widget having differenc height when the label is shown or not. I don't know how to make sure the widget keeps a fixed height even if one of his childeren is hidden. I could just set the text to label to a whitespace and keep is shown, but i guess there is a proper way.
- Warning color : I used hardcoded red, i didn't find how to use themed colors
- Others issues i don't think of right know.
Thanks,
Charly
