Given that we are happily using GNOME keyring on the desktop already,
I certainly won't complain if we continue using it.

However, we need to sort out how to set a master password on it and
whether we need a UI to unlock it.

We might also want to optimize it for mobile use: at the very least, I
think it should quit automatically after some seconds of inactivity:
given how rarely the service is used, I see little point in having it
in RAM all the time.

Ciao,
