Ah sorry, I didn't understand the "is not visible from ReviewBoard" earlier. This looks like a ReviewBoard bug - if you give it a parent diff it can apparently create a request, but not generate the diff view then. I'll replace the diff with an independent one in a moment, sorry about that.

Their goal is to make KWallet mostly invisible to the user during routine operations, but still have users benefit from encrypted password storage behind the scenes.
