I know, that is why I am asking which program Sebas tested. I have just tested
active-browser and the input fields trigger the virtual keyboard too. I have
not found a program that does not.

So this problem happens in Plasma NM, the MeeGo image does not ship with it.
NetworkManager only stores passwords if you set the connection as system
connection. If you just disabled kwallet then Plasma NM will store passwords as
plain text, like NM does for system connections, so neither option is safe.
