Here is a picture of my keyring viewed from Seahorse. Notice that there are *two* entries in it for the same printer. One is stored by the "Mousepad" authentication dialog and the other by system-config-printer dialog. The libreoffice one doesn't seem to have an option to remember the credentials, so I haven't tested it.
This proves that system-config-printer is storing the password in the keyring after all. Still, I wonder... Why do there have to be two entries like this? Shouldn't one suffice for all programs wanting to print?
