--- Comment #1 from Ivan Čukić ---
This is not planned as it defeats the purpose and aims of Vaults.
Vaults have the 'privacy first, usability close second' moto.
First, if you want for a vault to automatically open because your KWallet is
open all the time (as it is by default), you are better off just encrypting
your whole home directory or partition.
Second, and more important, KWallet is inherently unsafe (not bashing KWallet
authors, the same applies to other similar programs). Even if you configure
KWallet to automatically close when no applications are using it, when it gets
open, any random application can extract the passwords from it. So, some
application could get the Vault password.
Things we have to do for privacy and security are sometimes annoying...
