That said, I kind of like @rooty's idea of keeping the blur but reducing its strength, and then un-blurring it on login and having the Breeze splash screen always show the un-blurred version of the wallpaper chosen for the SDDM theme. This would solve the problem of people being unable to see the wallpaper image, while preserving the legibility benefits of the blur.
