I upgraded to sddm-0.20.0-r1 during my last regular emerge-update. Shortly after that I experienced an issue, unrelated to sddm, where I needed to switch to a tty. I usually use Ctrl/Alt/F2 rather the Ctrl/Alt/F1 to avoid the clutter of the boot log. There followed some confusion as the switch appeared not to have worked. I would prefer sddm to continue with its historic default of VT7 rather than grabbing the first free VT. This could change at each sddm restart and could cause some more confusion when trying to switch back to KDE after switching to a tty for debugging.
