Konversation 1.3 stores NickServ passwords in ~/.kde/share/config/konversationrc unsafely, they are human readable.


Reproducible: Didn't try

Install Konversation 1.3, configure identity ans set identification with NickServ protocol and type the password in the respective fields.

Actual Results:

Expected Results:  
Konversation should use kwallet to store passwords or at least, should encrypt them a few to safeguard  user privacy.
