--- Comment #1 from Russ Holmes <squirrel315 at protonmail.com> ---
I can confirm this irritating bug. When the 'Remember password' checkbox is set
when mounting an encrypted removable device, it remains set by default every
time the device is mounted. Hence, if the user wants to clear the password so
that it is not stored locally, they have to remember to clear the checkbox
every time the device is mounted in future otherwise the password gets stored.

This seems to arise out of the interaction between Dolphin and KWallet.

The only way that I have found to get the checkbox to open unset is by going
into KWalletManager and deleting the whole SolidLuks2 folder - deleting an
individual password is not enough. Of course, this will clear *all* removable
device passwords that it is storing.
