Okay, usability review. Some recommendations, some questions:
- This right now only has these options because adding wallpapers or Plasmoids 
simply wasn't implemented yet and will get more settings once they are 
implemented, right?
- In which category will it reside? In 4.X it is in "Display & Monitor" and 
thus in the Hardware category, where it certainly should not be because it has 
nothing to do with hardware. It should go into workspace settings
- "Immediate" should say "Immediately"
- I think Sebas' suggestion to use comboboxes makes sense, but it would make 
even more sense to use editable comboboxes, which would combine the ease of 
selecting one of a few values with the flexibility of being able to enter an 
arbitrary number. What's saved in the config file would always be a number.
- Why is "Lock screen after" in minutes, but "Require password after" in 
seconds? Is it because it the latter is only supposed to be a grace time to 
allow users to move the mouse to prevent having to enter the password when they 
see the screen has locked?
- The GUI (just like the 4.x one) does not make clear whether "Require password 
after" means "After the last user action" or "After the screen was locked". I'd 
write "Require password after locking:". This is still not 100% clear, but 
should be more clear than it is now.
- Is "Logout automatically after" really useful? do we know of realistic 
usecases for this feature? Otherwise, I'd remove it.
