And image 2 has only 1 or 2px instead of ~6px in the other. I suggest you define one distance and use this values for all controls (no need to stick to the exact values at the HIG https://community.kde.org/KDE_Visual_Design_Group/HIG/Placement since it was a proposal back than and still is). And if there a good reason to have more space you should have a second value.

To explain the pictures better, there is always a picture how it was done before and how it looks with this patch. So image 1 is old IPv4 configuration and image 2 is with this patch. 

Password still uses the inline storage option, because I have that patch somewhere else and given it's not pushed it would complicate me doing diffs.

We can remove colons later if we agree on that.
