STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. install kdenetwork-filesharing plugin
2. install samba-usershares package
3. add your user to the group "usershares", which was created via the
"samba-usershares" package
4. create a Samba user for your Linux user and set a password
5. restart
6. create a directory in your home directory
7. set the right SELinux context for the share
sudo semanage fcontext --add --type "samba_share_t"
"/home/my_user_name/name_of_directory(/.*)?"
sudo restorecon -R ~/name_of_directory
8. open properties of the directory. Go to "Share" tab
OBSERVED RESULT
There is a button to create/set a Samba user/password, despite a Samba user
beeing already present.
EXPECTED RESULT
It should not ask for this if a Samba user is already present.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 37 KDE Spin , everything is up to date
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
As seen here https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2096405 and here
https://pagure.io/fedora-kde/SIG/issue/109
there exists a "samba-usershares" package in the Fedora repo which creates the
directory "/var/lib/samba/usershares" and a "/etc/samba/usershares.conf" file.
The "/etc/samba/smb.conf" file has the following line:

which includes, as I understand, the additional configuration from
"/etc/samba/usershares.conf", created by the samba-usershares package. The
"/etc/samba/usershares.conf" file holds this:
