I'm not going do discuss the relative merits of seahorse vs. gnome-keyring-manager, but there is one thing that I cannot let uncommented in the seahorse ui. On the "Passphrase Cache" there is a section that warns me about the fact that a certain seahorse-agent is not running. It shows a button (or rather a label that turns into a button on mouse-over) for starting said seahorse-agent. So far so good (although the button would be better as a regular button). But when I click on it, it adds more text about how I should add seahorse-agent to the session to avoid starting it manually in the future, and changes the button to one that launches gnome-session. This is seriously wrong, in my opinion. It feels like the computer is asking me to do something that it could have just as well done itself. I'd propose to a) make ssh-agent register with the session manager itself or b) install an autostart file for it, or c) add a check box next to the button [ ] do this automatically in the future Regards.
