I noticed the wallpaper changer thing myself and think it's great to finally
have that horrible dropdown list replaced with something decent. On the

everytime I login to KDE via KDM. It respawns 15 seconds later and works
fine but it always dies once right after login. Also, dolphin seems to be
really slow and laggy.

Rob,
Don't forget, for plasma restarts, there are only 3 commands required. If you
find you need to restart plasma (or just to check for messages during restart),
put the following in a little script called 'rsplasma' (or whatever you want to
call it):
#!/bin/bash
kbuildsycoca4 # 'k'de 'build' 'sy'stem 'co'nfig 'ca'che
kquitapp plasma-desktop >/dev/null 2>&1 # quit plasma
kstart plasma-desktop & >/dev/null 2>&1 # restart the darn thing and pray
get rid of the '>/dev/null 2>&1' to see the bazillion lines of gibberish and
errors. That may help narrow the issue.
