[kde-linux] SDDM alternatives

F23 with KDE uses the SDDM display manager by default. This is totally 
impractical in an environment, like ours, where users are authenticated 
through the network. There are literally hundreds of possible users. 
Scrolling through that many pseudo-pictures to find yourself is stupid! 
It's also something of a security exposure as everyone learns all the 
possible users of the system. There has to be a way to allow a user to 
explicitly enter his name without having to select it from any kind of 
list. Ideas?
