Google Wallet and rooting the Nexus 7

[Natey2]

I hear that I need to delete the Google Wallet setup on my Nexus 7 (setup needed to claim my $25 Google Play Store credit) before rooting it, or there will be problems with (Store?) security related stuff after rooting it.
Anyone care to confirm, from experience?

I didn't want to take the chance of messing up persisted security credentials, so I reset my Google Wallet before:
A. unlocking the bootloader,
B. flashing a new bootloader,
C. flashing ClockworkMod recovery, and
D. rooting it.
Now my Nexus 7 is just the way I want it

Hmm.. my other Google account slipped through the cracks... e-mail I received:
