It seems to be like this would be very user *un-friendly*.. like, I type in password
1, then type in password 2 and make a small typo, but the OK button does not work..
why not? How do I know that my passwords don't match? Seems like the OK button is
broken, oh I guess KDE sucks...

There is no way to tell without clicking OK that you made a typo. This seems very
strange.
