Binary package hint: gnome-keyring

Each time I sign in I am asked to put in my password like 3 or 4 times
in a row, I know its a safety measure but why not ask for it once and
have it applied to all the applications that are asking for access of
some kind? plus it just says "an application is asking for access to
keyrings" or something like that and I never know what application. How
is that secure? I have no idea what I am granting access to. It should
show a list of all the applications that are asking for the key rings.
Maybe in a tree type view, and it would show how much access this will
give, to what, and for how long. The user, especially the one dubbed as
the administrator should always be informed of all this kind of
information upfront, right away, and without having to go searching
around for it, but also in an un-obtrusive and smooth way that does not
slow down the user or make him or her annoyed. Hope this input /
feedback helped and I look forward to seeing the next version of Ubuntu
already.


   Thank you and God Bless your work,
       Daniel Clem

P.S. Side note, Wouldn't mind beta testing updates and new features if
anyone needs it though I don't know anything about programing or
terminal lines, but that would give a real world common user type of
feedback.

Not really a bug, but I wanted to directly make a feature change with the 
"Passwords and Encryption Keys" program that seems to be new to 10.4 and newer
