Then any time later I can run seahorse (without authentication) and go and look at my wireless password (password tab / passphrase for wireless network / properties). It just asks me 'Do you want to allow access?' and if I say yes (ie 'Allow Once' or 'Allow Always'), it doesn't ask for authentication or anything, it just shows the password. Isn't this a security problem? If I reboot just X with CTRL-ALT-BS and log in again, when I run seahorse it asks me for authentication to run it, but after a full reboot it doesn't ask for any authentication. I have automatic login enabled (so on full reboot I don't need to login via the X login window) if that makes any difference.
