Priority: medium
Bug ID: 77171
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Integrate with a keyring to store network passwords
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.2.2.1 release
Component: filters and storage
Depends on: 77170
Product: LibreOffice
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #77170 +++
Followup to bug #77170.
LibreOffice should be able to somehow detect connections that have been already
established so that the user doesn't have to type their password twice (once
when setting up a connection with e.g. GNOME Online Accounts and once when
opening a file in LibreOffice). This could be done in one of two ways, I think:
1. LibreOffice could use e.g. GVFS and just blindly open files, letting the
network be handled somewhere lower in the stack
2. LibreOffice could find and use credentials already stored in a desktop
keyring. E.g. I've already configured an OwnCloud account in the GNOME Online
Accounts settings, so LibreOffice could locate my credentials in the GNOME
Keyring and reuse them. This would depend on bug #77170, probably. I'm assuming
it would also be the worst way to do it, because it wouldn't extend to generic
connections (e.g. any GVFS-negotiated connection not associated with a specific
configured account).
