It has been around for quite some time (~2 years) and it has KWallet support. > So I think using stable kwallet library will be better for now. > Kwallet code will be in separate plugin, which means it will be > possible to create QtKeychain plugin later without problems. One thing to understand when it comes to KWallet is that KDE will transition to the freedesktop.org Secret Service API at some point, keeping KWallet's API for compatibility, but being capable of using any Secret Service daemon implementation. Thus using an abstraction like QtKeychain, which has already proven to be able to abstract KWallet and the Mac OS X Keychain is likely to be adaptable to the Secret Service system as well, potentially making it transparent when the switch happens. The Secret Service API is, IIRC, already provided by GNOME's secure storage service gnome-keyring.
