Kiosk settings to put into place for KDE 4.4:
Wishlist
- plasma-desktoprc
- Removal of panel view (as opposed to the containment itself)
- Panel geometry configuration
- Separation between system and user part (may be through an extra file plasma-desktoprc-user as an idea)
- locked options should be hidden/disabled to the user
- include/exclude list for applets (plasmoids), so the user can be limited to use only specific applets
drag and drop for the quicklauncher-> implemented in kde4.3- panel: immutable=2 prevent moving and configuring the panel and also prevents adding or moving applets. It would be an advantange, if these things can be configured separately, like
- panel moveable: 0/1
- panel configurable: 0/1
- applets addable: 0/1
- applets movable: 0/1
- and so on
- Same applies for the applets itself (removable: 0/1, ...)
Extended wishlist
- for testing the final user settings while using profiles, the tool "kreadconfig" can be used. However, currently, this tool can only hanlde single values. It would be a great benifit, the the tool could also extract
- single values
- sections
- config files
- how to lock the quicklauncher in the way, that icons can not be added during a session?
- how to remove kmenuedit at right-click onto the launcher?
- how to disable/hide parts of the ksettingsmanager ?
- in case the desktop gets into a state, where it gets unusable, plasma-appletrc (or even worse: the complete user setup) must be cleaned/deleted. Is there a tool/approach to save/extract specific settings from the user KDE settings? Things like bookmarks, Quicklauncher-configuration, ... Until now, we use a script for this.
