Description Patrick Silva 2018-01-20 18:19:56 UTC
user manager has "log in automatically" checkbox
sddm-kcm has "auto-login" checkbox in "advanced" tab

These options are redundant, maybe is a good idea remove some of them.

You're absolutely right that is the current state. 

The problem is you could make a very compelling case that it should be in either. It's  equally relevant across two different contexts, managing login or managing the user.

We have quite a few situations where you can find the same thing in two different places and generally it's not ever been an issue. 

I'm tempted to close this as wontfix, unless I hear a good reason why it's a problem.
