I do not mind taking a stub at the KWallet portion specially since I can cheat 
and look at what has already been done by khtml as a starting point. Out of 
curiosity though how were you able to obtain form data from QtWebKit in Qt 4.5 
or were you able to achieve that through the new QWebElement API in Qt 4.6 ?  
Anyhow, I will look into this when I get the chance soon unless someone else 
beats me to it...
