Description Dennis Schridde 2016-06-09 11:07:47 UTC 
It would be nice if there was a username field in the SDDM greeter, in addition to the list of user "faces". If the list is very long (e.g. a shared computer at a company), it is very inconvenient to scroll through dozens or even hundreds of icons until one finds the desired user.

When, how, was this fixed?
Comment 2 Kai Uwe Broulik 2016-06-09 22:54:27 UTC 
The upcoming Plasma 5.7 release will have an all-new login screen design which also features a username input field.
