This is a good simple task: set up auth-source entries for various types of accounts. The manual doesn't have to explain as much then, and the .ast file can describe the secrets.el steps to create and populate a Secrets API backend. If not, it becomes a pretty complicated explanation as you saw. What direction would you prefer? MA> Consequently, auth-source.el shall offer such an interface.

Deleting and creating authinfo/netrc entries, which is missing in your version, should not be too hard: we just need to remember the original line for every parsed entry in netrc.el (to avoid cases where the parser might create identical parses for two different lines).
