--- Comment #6 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
Note that the touchpad KCM that you;re using as an example was redesigned to
support libinput in Plasma 5.13 and now takes us much less horizontal space.
Also, my eventual goal is to eliminate the need for a second level of
navigation entirely by consolidating KCMs. See
https://phabricator.kde.org/T8871

Back to this bug:

If you reduce the window's width a bit, the second level of navigation should
disappear, giving the KCM area more horizontal space. There's not really any
particular need to maximize it.

I'll admit I still don't really understand what the problem is. I do understand
that when two levels of navigation are visible, this inherently results in less
space for the KCM itself unless you make the window even wider--which you can't
do on a narrow screen. But it doesn't look like there's actually any particular
lack of space. These KCMs as well as the System Settings app itself are
designed to be responsive, and adjust intelligently no matter how much space is
available. The touchpad example is improved starting in 5.13, and the SDDM KCM
doesn't look problematic to me. The list gets a scrollbar and you can still
reach all the content easily (also, most people don't have eight SDDM themes I
think :) ).

Since you have a small screen, can't you just avoid maximizing the window?
