Review request for KDE Base Apps.


Changes
-------

Removed unnecessary whitespace changes, and the new "Remove image" button (I will \
create a separate request for it).

I always used the coding style of the function I changed, the file contains a mixture \
of tabs and 2-whitespace indents. What is the kdelibs style?


Description
-------

Currently, the "User account & password" KCM refuses to change the user image if KDM \
is set up not to use user images. That however does not make much sense, all this \
applet does is writing the image to ~/.face.icon, which the user can do manually \
anyway. The fact that KDM might or might not actually display this image in the user \
selection is unrelated, as KDM is not even the only user of this file: Plasma Kickoff \
displays it, and maybe more apps use it (GDM uses a different file, though)

This patch therefore removes the check for the KDM settings and makes the KCM simply \
manage the .face.icon file. It does not fall back to the system default if the user \
image does not exist, as Plasma Kickoff does not do that either. The patch also adds \
a button in the "Change face" dialogue to remove the user image, to make it possible \
to go back to the default state again.

After changing the image, the user still has to log off and on again for Plasma to \
use it - Plasma would have to somehow listen to changes to that file. I don't know if \
that is desired.


This addresses bug 183245.

Testing
-------

Compiled and verified that the KCM now behaves as desired.


Thanks,

Ralf Jung
