I have not seen this in other systems. I know also we care for security and transparency. Maybe we should reconsider the wizard and use a more automated approach. Thoughts?

This would probably require changes to user-manager, or whatever it is that receives the string used for a new account's password. At the moment when a new user account is created, it would not only create the new user account, but it would also create a wallet using the same password.
Can't we use pam_kwallet to receive the password and automatically create the wallet when the user logs in for the first time?
Of course, some caveats apply, passwordless login, smart cards, trivial password ...
