Wow, that's a nice piece of work. I don't have a Mac, so I cannot test it. And btw I switched to KF5. And speaking of KF5...

As you may know, there are two kwallet-related repositories. The first one is the repo which will receive your commit (the deprecated kdelibs repo). This one no longer receives updates and it'll eventually dissappear, when KF5-based code will become more mature. The current kwallet-code is located in KF5-KWallet. Would you mind porting this also to the KF5?

The modifications to the AuthServices make it possible to edit the kwallet configuration in the associated control module. And last but not least, password prompts no longer get posted somewhere in the background.
