--- Comment #2 from Nate Graham <pointedst...@zoho.com> ---
Yes, that's true. I have to assume that you can compare hashes to find out if
that match, or maybe ask PAM?

For users who use the same password for their KWallet as they do for their
user, there's a nearly 100% chance that it's for convenience. If they change
their login password without the KWallet password getting updated, not only is
the convenience lost, but they may be disoriented and frightened to suddenly
receive password prompts they never saw before asking them for a password they
may not be familiar with. In this case, it is not at all obvious that the
password KWallet is asking for is their *old* password.

This happened to my wife, FWIW, which is why I filed the bug.
