Subject: [Pywikipedia-l] Secret management 
 
We have four sets of cleartext passwords (http & proxy & db), and secrets such 
as various API keys and mw cookies and edit tokens.

The passwords are stored in two files in clear text (user-config.py and. 
passwd). Other secrets are in cached api files, etc.

I would like to introduce an optional dependency on a library to manage (some 
of?) these secrets. The current secret storage would continue to work correctly.

The keyring package is the obvious candidate. Any objections or improvements on 
that?
