Yeah. "At this point putting up a label for which application is accessing the secret
isn't that easy, and it's very hard to get it completely right. It would be
nice to get this working, but unless someone pitches in with a plan/code, it's
currently at a lower priority than other gnome-keyring work."

.. the way I read that is, ..

"Sorry, it turns out that even though we know that 'an application' wants to gain access to the keyring, it's too hawrd to figure out how to track that. So, we're putting this off. Indefinitely."

Open source developers. Gotta love 'em. (Yes this is a snide remark. I'm embarrassed for these people. A desktop OS exists FOR A USER. So if a security message cannot be properly constructing its message because to properly construct its message is too hawrd, the message should not be shown. Redesign the keyring feature or drop the feature.)
