But that is exactly my point.
One key - the KDE wallet key - _will_ open all the locks on my computer.

Mikkel has suggested one advantage, if I am using several systems.
But as it happens, I am not - all the passwords at issue 
are on one computer.

Again, that is exactly _my_ point.
If someone does get my KDE wallet key then they can open every lock
on my computer, as far as I can see.
