With regards to the "Widget Style and Behaviour" label in the `kcmshell5 style` dialog: I don't find that particularly attracting under Breeze as well. It's too "bulky" for my taste. CC'ing Sebas, who've reworked the widget to look like this in commit 510236aa9cea6bae48e548b42b5b721195bed121 Author: Sebastian Kügler <se...@kde.org> Date: Sat May 24 01:36:51 2014 +0200 Change titlewidget from bold to increased font size This patch removes the bold weight from KTitleWidget and makes the text a bit bigger, improving focus. This is more in line with common expectations of a title, and it's more in line with Plasma 5's typography. Maybe we can find a solution that works well under both styles? PS: I've no incentive for getting this fixed, just wanted to add my 2c and connect people.
