  Instead of just passing the string in the combobox directly to whatever writes the value to the file, you'd need to translate the value first.

  The generic solution you've implemented here makes sense if the features you're exposing actually work in SDDM with all themes (in which case, we need to improve the UI here). If not, maybe do the simple checkbox as suggested in that forum post.
