Doesn't build for me: make[2]: *** No rule to make target '/usr/share/dbus-1/interfaces/org.kde.screensaver.xml', needed by 'ksmserver/kscreenlocker_interface.cpp'. Stop. CMakeFiles/Makefile2:3454: recipe for target 'ksmserver/CMakeFiles/kdeinit_ksmserver.dir/all' failed make[1]: *** [ksmserver/CMakeFiles/kdeinit_ksmserver.dir/all] Error 2 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... [ 37%] Built target krunner Makefile:127: recipe for target 'all' failed make: *** [all] Error 2 +1 on the idea though; the switch user screen has always been a bit unnerving for various reasons. I think this will be much nicer. That said, I can foresee one potential issue: the interactive parts of the lockscreen UI aren't shown by default; you need to wiggle the mouse or bang on the keyboard to get anything interactive to show up. When we've entered the lockscreen in user switcher mode, I think the UI should be visible by default, since immediate user interaction is expected. (if it already it, please ignore this part of the comment; I couldn't test it out because of the aforementioned compile error) REPOSITORY R120 Plasma Workspace BRANCH master REVISION DETAIL https://phabricator.kde.org/D15187 To: davidedmundson, #plasma, mart Cc: ngraham, mart, plasma-devel, ragreen, Pitel, ZrenBot, lesliezhai, ali-mohamed, jensreuterberg, abetts, sebas, apol
