You have a point there, but isn't that use case better served by encrypting the
entire home directory, not just the keyring/wallet? Many users have plenty of
sensitive data outside the keyring/wallet too.
(By the way, KWallet isn't always passwordless, it just allows it. I consider
gnome-keyrings refusal to allow an empty password a typical example of
GNOME's "we know better than you" attitude.)
