As discussed today in #ubuntu-desktop, the current behavior is
intentional. There is no other easy graphical way to tell gnome-keyring
not to act as ssh agent, which is a common use case.

Bug description:
  SRU Team
  ========
  Wait to accept this. Showing the SSH service was apparently intentional and not just an oversight.
  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-keyring/3.10.1-1ubuntu4.2

  Impact
  ======
  Ubuntu has for several years set NoDisplay=true for various services that use /etc/xdg/autostart so that users don't open Startup Applications and turn off a service that isn't really meant to be disabled that way

  gnome-keyring has a patch to do this, but one service "SSH Key Agent"
  needs to be added to the patch.

  Test Case
  =========
  Install the updated gnome-keyring package.
  Open Startup Applications in Ubuntu (Unity) or Ubuntu GNOME
  "SSH Key Agent" should not show up in the list.

  Regression Potential
  ====================
  Low. If someone *did* uncheck the box next to SSH in Startup Applications, it will now be a bit more tricky to re-enable that service.

  rm ~/.local/share/autostart/gnome-keyring-ssh.desktop
