Demonstration of the problem.
SUMMARY
When authenticated as the superuser, the Users KCM displays the avatar
selection psuedo-window, yet does not enable the user to modify the avatar for
the account.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Name the superuser `root`.
2. Log in as the superuser via SDDM.
3. * 1. Invoke `systemsettings`
2. Navigate to "Users".
* Invoke `kcmshell6 kcm_users`.
4. Attempt to select an avatar.
If you select another using this process, you shall need to switch to another
KCM (or, if there are no others in System Settings, or you've used KCMShell,
reinitialize the KCM/SS). This is because root is not listed amongst the user
list, irrespective of the current user. I shall report this separately - check
"See also".
OBSERVED RESULT
I'm unable to modify the avatar.
EXPECTED RESULT
I should be able to, since the superuser's user elements remain non-disabled
(and consequently apparently modifiable).
