Bug Description
One of the biggest pains in moving from machine to machine is making sure I have my login credentials and certificates around.
It would be very convenient to have wireless network secrets, VPN credentials, GPG keys, and sometimes SSH keys follow me around, synchronized from Ubuntu One.
Most GNOME applications store their credentials using gnome-keyring. It seems like a no-brainer to add an "Ubuntu One" keyring that would be synchronized from machine to machine. Users could move credentials to this keyring if they wanted to have them available on all of their machines.

Hi Gabriel, Thank you for the feature suggestion. We are looking at ways to help synchronize identity across devices and I'll add your request to the "wishlist' that we review for future development. Thank you, Joshua
