When opening a new page, the latest Google Chrome (10.0.648.82 beta,
F14) frequently pops up a KDE Wallet dialogue asking for a keyring
password. This seems unrelated to whether the page itself wants a
password.
No previous version of Chrome did this, in fact I'm surprised Chrome has
any interaction with KDE at all.
Has anyone seen this? I'm asking here before reporting to BZ.

Chrom(e/ium) supports native backends for password storage under Linux
now, and these include KWallet and the GNOME keyring. I suppose this is
completely intentional. See this upstream ticket, looks like they
enabled it now:

I think there is a --password-store command line flag that determines
the backend used by the browser, you might want to look into that if you
don't like the idea of storing the passwords in KWallet.
