The problem is that there's no way to tell xfce that I want to use
gnome-keyring as my ssh agent and/or gpg agent - it automatically starts
ssh-agent and gpg-agent for me, regardless of whether that's what I want to
use.  

Probably that was fine when those were the only options available -- if you
wanted an agent at all, then that's what you used, and if you didn't want/need
one, then no harm was done by starting them anyway.  These days, there are
options, and those options are even supported indirectly by xfce (enable gnome
services on startup), so it seems like this should be something that the user
sets up to start from $HOME/.profile, $HOME/.xprofile, or wherever.
