Well, the keyring stores all kinds of useful information, like WPA/WEP
keys, ssh key passphrases, etc..  The way I first noticed that the
daemon wasn't running is that Network Manager couldn't just resume my
wireless connection, but would always ask for the WAP's WPA passphrase
(since it couldn't get it from the keyring).  Same thing goes for using
ssh (can't rely on the keyring to provide ssh-agent with the passphrase
for the ssh key in question).
