Maybe my perspective is limited, however I do not see e.g. an icon KCM used more than once per month (even stretching things a bit), so using them often is not a "common case". > > Sure, I agree that 20 clicks for trying a wallpaper might be "slow", although most probably you have configured it within 10 minutes... > > > Sure, if your mental model of the Appearance configuration KCMs is "set it once and forget about it forever", then having a slightly slow workflow isn't a problem. I said something else than what you wrote above: - "mostly once", not "once and never forever" - even when you change, it might is not so often > Right now these KCMs are not catering very well to people with these workflows. I do not think it is worth to provide interface to adapt also to people with less common workflows without making it too messy. There are many applications that do not perfor greatly for less common (or even rare workflows) -- I do not see it problematic, as long as these workflows are still doable. After all, we are talking about one click for a wallpaper change (the same in any situation), not something else in addition to what is required already. > The people who use this configurability at all are probably likely to adjust the settings quite a bit and on a semi-regular basis. likely is [citation required]. Again, how big is the demand for this?
