I did used to rely on tdewallet to keep passwords for my IM accounts, and I did used to use Kopete for chat, but since the past few years I haven't been able to get Kopete to work over Tor. It's been awhile since I checked, but I am guessing that it hasn't been significantly upgraded. Then I switched over to Pidgin, and tried some others (can't remember them all), but finally settled on Psi+, which has a lot of nice features, and works over Tor. But I can't use tdewallet for those passwords. Might be a good idea to use it for tdenetworkmanager, though; except, I don't know why, tdewallet has never prompted me for a network password. Hmmm.
