status of kde/plasma kiosk framework in kf5

[Mag. Weissel Thomas]

hello everybody..

first of all... wow!   this list of fixes is awesome.. thank you!

i have a question about this "hide toolbars" restriction..


as you can see in the following screenshot  (testing with dolphin 16.04.0)

http://test.xapient.net/STUFF/dolphin.jpg

i tried to restrict unocking the toolbar (look at the terminal)
also visible in the screenshot is, that "lock toolbar positions" is not 
checked but the handle for moving
the toolbars is hidden..  so it works!  although the menu entry to 
unlock is still there...

you can also see that "show toolbar" (rightclick on the toolbar) and 
"Main Toolbar" (rightclick on the menubar) is still visible so hiding 
the toolbar is possible...
i'm a little bit confused because i read what kai wrote and it seems 
that on his installation only the entry in the menubar context menu 
is/was visible..
are we talking about the same thing here?  just checking!


i tested:
action/manage activities=false

and it properly hides all entries to configure activities.. "Meta+Q" 
doesnt open the activities configuration panel either... yay!!
but "Meta+Tab" shows the activity switcher...  holding down "Meta" and 
using the mouse on the activity switcher lets me open the configure 
dialog.. no configurations are stored so this is not a big problem..

best regards,
thomas

> * Leave option in desktop toolbox honors kiosk restriction

> * Typing on empty desktop will not try to call krunner if restricted
> * krunner history will be disabled if lineedit_text_completion is restricted
> * Kickoff favorites cannot be rearranged/added/removed when unlockedDesktop is restricted
> * Kickoff applications cannot be edited or added as launcher to task bar when unlockedDesktop is restricted, the "edit applications" context menu will also be hidden then
> * most applets now won't offer context menu entries about modules restricted via kde control module restrictions. Clicking would already not do anything as we already block launching them but we now avoid a dead menu entry
> * right-clicking menu bar can no longer bypass "hide toolbars" restriction
