Hey,

Sorry for the apparent late reply - I started to have some spare time so
I'm back looking the KDE e-mails :-)

It was never possible to query a KWallet without unlocking it, AFAICT.

I remember Google Chrome correctly detected KWallet and interacted with
it when present. But lately I returned to Firefox so don't know more.
For that to work, you need to have a KDE session going in the
background.  That session will initialize the dbus services and among
them the kwalletd service. From that point on, the client-side libraries
will talk to it.
