--- Comment #36 from gust...@angulosolido.pt --- Hi Nate, For our understanding to converge with accuracy, I'm going to provide an extra reply. We are not using this as an admin feature. We are using this as an extra layer of user confirmation in the same spirit of "do you really want to delete this file forever"? Users are forced to read and click on "Unlock widgets" before they can click into Panel Edit Mode. So users (not sysadmins) are in control still but they have an extra confirmation layer which statistically speaking prevents many occurrences of desktop misconfiguration. What we had until now and lost from 5.17 to 5.18 was something subtle: a delicate balance between user control and user protection. In regards to your suggestions: it is not doable to teach regular users how to run qdbus or even use krunner in order to be allowed to perform desktop customization. It is also not doable to not allow any user to configure the desktop or to rely on a sysadmin to unlock things. I'm not sure I am expressing myself clearly :-) but this is an attempt. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
