Actually, it seems that this is still problematic from what I read.

That sounds like a great recipe for chaos! Be prepared for cleaning up a
big mess yourself.

user-manager is superseeded by a kcms plugin, and is not needed anymore,
but the functionality is still there.

Try it ... I don't use it.

That is not a problem. The KDE/Apps can be updated *mostly* independent,
and most of them have anyway hardly any changes between 20.08 and 20.12.

Yes, there is great perfect unbeatable magic, it is called
	WAITING
;-) Wait until the packages arrive in testing, and it will (hopefully)
automatically work.
