Bug Description

When opening a remote host that is known by the nautilus 'network servers'
thing, I'm requested to enter my password to unlock the default keyring.

Imagine you accidentally clicked the icon, or you realize you don't have the
correct passwords; Then you click 'Deny' in the "unlock default keyring" dialog.
You're redirected to a dialog to enter the login credentials for the specific
server directly. Hit cancel. You're back at the unlock keyring dialog again. If
you just want to *cancel* the whole thing you have to do this about 3 times to
generate an error and let nautilus leave you alone.

I suggest quitting the whole thing as soon as "deny" and "cancel" are chosen in
the "unlock default keyring" and the "open remote host" dialogs, respectively.
