I was just wondering...

Out of sheer curiosity, although I dont think this is a common problem,
but still... there is a slight problem with the screen saver password
entry, in that, by hitting ESC while you are entering your password, you
are automatically returned to the screensaver.  What if your password
contains an ESCape character (or several other 'special' characters, ex
the F keys, which are ignored in password entry for the screen saver)?
There should be some sort of "escape key" (not necessarily literally the
escape key) that literally accepts whatever you enter.

Anyway, just a passing thought to waste your time ;)

BTW... a question about mouse wheel action... I've kinda been out of the
development circle for a while (mainly due to lack of time), but I'm
back and running KDE2 with a vengeance ;)  Is mouse wheel action currently
program-dependant, and not built into scrollbar widgets?  Cause I've
noticed that certain k apps (konqueror, kvt, etc) work with the wheel but
others dont (such as konsole, and interestingly, viewing a local image
inside of konqueror).  Is mouse wheel support going to be integrated into
the scrollbar widget in the future?

Anyway, time to go to sleep... got to get up in a few hours ;)
