Hi Kevin and René J.V. Bertin,

I did some tests.

With Plasma 5 (plasma-desktop-5.10.5-1.fc27.x86_64), I got it to work by 
appending the following lines to my "*$HOME/.config/kdeglobals*":

     [KDE Action Restrictions]
     action/start_new_session=false
     action/switch_user=false
     action/lock_screen=false

But I can't get it to work with Plasma 4.10. I tried 
$HOME/.config/kdeglobals", $HOME/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals, 
ksmserverrc, plasma-desktoprc,  plasma-desktop-appletsrc, none is working.

Not sure if it is not supported in Plasma 4 or is it because I don't 
install plasma 4 correctly?

Thanks,

Zaiwen
