SUMMARY If the user invokes the logout screen through krunner, it can sometimes happen that the mouse cursor is coincidentally on top of an item other than the one they have invoked though krunner. When this happens, both the items are highlighted, which is very confusing. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. In Settings > Startup and Shutdown > Desktop Session, enable 'confirm logout' 2. Invoke the logout confirmation screen 3. Place the mouse cursor above, say, the 'sleep' item (do not move the mouse cursor in the steps after this) 4. Press Esc (to cancel the countdown) 5. Type 'shut down' in krunner 6. Use the arrow keys to select the 'Shut down' option in krunner 7. Press enter OBSERVED RESULTS Both 'shut down' and the other item under the cursor are highlighted during the countdown, which is confusing. EXPECTED RESULTS If the user has invoked the logout confirmation screen through krunner, the mouse pointer position should be initially ignored. It might make sense to start highlighting the item under the cursor once the user moves the mouse during the countdown.

Effort-to-reward ratio here seems quite low given how small the buttons are relative to the screen size. You have to be really lucky (or unlucky?) for the popup to open such that your cursor is over one of them
Not sure we'll do this absent a patch from a volunteer, sorry!
