Re: Cinnamon desktop
Well.. I don't see the problem. I have installed Mate & KDE, but I only use Mate. Up to now, the other desktop never gives me problem. Is just there. From time to time I update it, and that's all. Aside of it, is always a good idea to have an alternative desktop. If your main Environment fails you still have another one to log in and fix the problem. Just my experience...

If you use Yumex, just open it, look up for Compiz and select it for deletion. Then apply and see if you're okay with the options (like other stuff it will remove and so).

Re: Kmail
Very likely. I just had to delete a bunch of akonadi config things because it wouldn't stop by itself. Not even changing sessions (I use Plasma at times but most of times it's Cinnamon my desktop). I would be very happy if one day KDE developers dump Akonadi altogether and use something else, simpler.

My issue with SDDM is its absolute lack of options. It's impossible to install new themes. It's impossible to select a user image or a background.

Re: BT Applet in Mate
Hi! I use Mate but I don't use Bluetooth. Take a look at PostinstallerF, they have (usually) practical solutions for that kind of missing applets or applications. Cheers!

Re: Firefox fonts
You have a setting under Fonts in Gnome preferences, right? If you change that setting, let's say picking Chancery font instead of Sans font, what happens? Do you see that change in Firefox? Or Firefox is still using its own fonts settings? Hope I'm clearer now... Cheers!

Use "pdf import" tool. It's a Libreoffice addon. That tool allows you to open your pdfs, edit them and save them as odg or export them as pdf again.
