Yes, but it won't hurt much. Do a "yum install seahorse" (it will have one or 
two dependencies), use it to set an empty password, then "yum remove seahorse" 
and its dependency, and you are done. :-)

I tried it instead of nm-applet, but somehow didn't feel stable enough. Since 
nm-applet was favored to knetworkmanager on the very KDE spin, I guess the 
latter is not quite there yet. Besides, I got used to nm-applet, and it works 
ok for me.

The whole thing has nothing to do with NM itself. The issue is between nm-
applet and default keyring (Gnome) or knetworkmanager and kde wallet (KDE). 
It's all about where to store the wireless keys and who can read them.

Best, :-)
