Thanks. Disabling automatic hiding isn't really a good option - I want
it for most other messages. Other than KMail's notifications,
everything else that goes through KDE notifier is more transient and
does not need to be shown. Which is why I thought that sending
critical errors like authentication failure through a notification
system which the user can disable or make invisible in various ways
seems to be a bad idea in general.

This makes more sense. But how do I pass the text of the actual error
message to it? Is there a code like "%s" that I could use? Not obvious
to me from the interface.
