Actually, it does work when you are not in front of your Mac. However, in that case, you must first run the security command with the appropriate parameters/switches to unlock your keychain.

However, yes, I agree it isn't terribly conducive for 'browsing' the keychain (my use case is pulling a couple of signing certs where I know precisely which I want).
