Hi everyone !
We are planning to use a restricted KDE-desktop on linux for up to 12000
users.
A useful feature for us might be to implement a temporary switching-off
kiosk-restrictions.
This would mean, kiosk restriction can be switched off during a session
using
a special hotkey that causes a popup window requesting a special "kiosk
password" that might
be different from the systems root password.
After having finished your work a special hotkey should reactivate the
restrictions again.
This feature might be helpful for diagnostics because it enables a shell
for the administrator or developer if shell access is forbidden.
