The menu entry of kvpnc is:
su-to-root -X -c /usr/bin/kvpnc

other root programs have just their program names without the "su-to-root" or 
path as menu entries, like adept_manager.
ksystemlog uses "kdesu ksystemlog [...]", seems that each program cooks it's 
own soup.

- maybe that's a dupe of Bug #82969, but that one is said to be fixed,
- this one not:
+ This looks similar to Bug #82969, but that one is said to be fixed, this
+ here is not:
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  -in KDE, install Kvpnc; it creates a menu entry.
  -open any program that uses the KWallet, so you can see the kwallet icon in 
the systray.
  -open konsole - type "sudo kvpnc" - it starts and uses the kwallet of the 
user. create any profile.
- -close it again, and start kvpnc from the KDE menu -> it asks you for a 
password and starts, but uses a separate kwallet (that of root?) - and you have 
a different profile (in /root/.kde/share/config/kvpncrc)
+ -close it again, and start kvpnc from the KDE menu -> it asks you for a

it uses a different profile (in /root/.kde/share/config/kvpncrc)
  
- And you can see 2 (!) kwallet icons in the systray.
+ And you can see 2 (!) kwallet icons in the systray, one belongs to the
+ logged in user, one to root.
