--- Comment #1 from Daniel Vrátil <dvratil at kde.org> ---
I think I have a suspicion as to what happens, but I have not confirmed it and
haven't checked the code either, so this is just an educated guess:

When you change account password Google likely expires both the Access token
and the Refresh token - the code may not be ready to handle invalid Refresh
token and just keeps trying to get a new Access token using the - now invalid -
Refresh token instead of throwing both away and showing the Google login dialog
to receive a new pair.
