OK, this is a great idea if the same user changes the password via another
non-KDE tool (e.g. "passwd").
Maybe this is even a more generic approach than implementing something in the
KDE user-manager.
-> Bug 413284 - user-manager should change kwallet password (if identical
before)

But a PAM hook won't work if the administrator/root changes the user password.
Because the administrator probably can't provide the old user password for
kwallet decryption.
