I like the idea, but I have to ask the annoying question: what happens when an application which needs access to the wallet is running outside of Plasma? Ideally we could hook into the running workspace password safe (gnome keyring, mac os keychain, windows equivalent if any). If I am not mistaken this is what the FDO secret storage spec [1] is about, but is it in a state we can rely on for KDE SC 4.10?
