Access to my mail account only is not as bad as access to all my passwords. 
And with the same argument you could say that access to my IMAP account (which
includes a lot of personal information which can as well be used for a joe-job)
is as bad as access to the SMTP as well so IMAP connections should be closed
with the wallet.

Apart from that does KMail currently make the complete option "Close when
unused for N seconds" completely useless for me.  I admit though that locking
the screen is the way to go, but then the whole option is useless as well :)

And nope, you can't configure KMail to have access to the wallet without a
password while everybody else requires a password.  That's technically
impossible.  All you can decide is whether an application has access at all.
