hi there,

as i want to make everything configurable from the module (no nasty
xdm config files any more :-)), the amount of options will become
overwhelming. 

so what do you suggest?
as we all know, nested tabs are bad style. putting everything in one
"tab line" is inacceptable, too (esp., as i'm already hardly able to
find distinct hotkeys).
i thought about making a whole kcontrol submenu. this would also
emphasize the fact, that the whole kdm setup contains many duplicate
options from other modules - but for no user. otoh, the kdesu
stuff had to be done for every single submenu, if we find no sensible
solution to group it (hmm - maybe, invoke a second kcontrol instance
with only the kdm menu options enabled?).

ideas? comments?

best regards
