Is there a way to query the full source tree to assemble a list of all possible
"kiosk" related restrictions?
Or which apps support restrictions?
There are two README files in the source tree, but the files seem incomplete:
tdelibs/tdecore/README/kiosk
tdebase/konsole/README.konsole_kiosk
Neither README is installed in the final tdelibs or tdebase packages.
The README files indicate there are three major groupings (kdeglobal):
[KDE Action Restrictions]
[KDE Resource Restrictions]
[KDE URL Restrictions]
The kiosktool app does not seem to provide a method to assemble a full list of
restrictions.
I am editing the Admin Guide. An appendix of all possible restrictions would be helpful.

Hi Darrell,
I am not a kiosk expert (I don't use it).
How does a kiosk restriction look like on a file? Then we can perhaps come up with some
sort of search.

sort of search.
Here is an example from my home theater PC kdeglobals:
[KDE Action Restrictions]
action/bookmarks=false
action/configdesktop=false
action/devnew=false
action/editfiletype=false
action/kicker_rmb=false
action/konsole_rmb=false
action/kwin_rmb=false
action/menuedit=false
action/openintab=false
action/openwith=false
action/properties=true
editable_desktop_icons=true
lock_screen=false
movable_toolbars=false
run_command=false
services=false
switch_user=false
user/root=false
In my use case example, these restrictions lock the desktop.
There is a KDE web page containing a list of restrictions, but the page also includes
plasma restrictions, which implies some of the other restrictions might be KDE4-only as
well. After excluding the plasma restrictions the resulting list probably is close to
being complete.
http://techbase.kde.org/KDE_System_Administration/Kiosk/Keys
Regardless, seems there ought to be a programmatic way to create a complete list.
In that web page is a heading titled "Using D-Bus To Find More Actions," but
there is no information. That heading title hints that perhaps dcop might be able to do
the same thing.

Some poking around reveals
http://git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/tdelibs/tree/tdecore/README.kiosk
which seems to be our equivalent of the source material for that page.
It includes some dcop-related discovery instructions.

In addition to the README.kiosk, the file
tde/main/applications/kiosktool/kiosktool/kiosk_data.xml defines the actions available in
kiosk and a short description of each of them. Search for "action type=" to get
a list of the supported actions.
