OK, I finally installed NetworkManager-gnome, and now I can connect to my  
wlan with nm-applet. (Knetworkmanager from KDE3 didn't work for me neither, 
btw)
So it seems my problem was that I was trying to use a NM frontend that is not 
really ready for wider use. It was also not clear to me, that yast cannot be 
used anymore to configure wireless connections, the popup message that yast 
shows is not very meaningful to KDE4 users.
So I guess this is just a small usability problem, do you want me to file a 
bugreport nevertheless ?

Thanks for your help,

        Markus
