If you use kwallet, it's only one password (the wallet password) and then that
unlocks stored account passwords. You could even set up a password-less
kwallet, IIRC, but I wouldn't recommend that.

If you don't use kwallet you either have to (a) type in each password in turn
or (b) store the passwords insecurely on the filesystem. Actually, I'm not
even sure (b) is an option anymore since it's a bad idea.
