Assuming you meant s/of/if/ and assuming that means that the disable
gpg/ssh-agent you mention as a configuration option in comment 10 would in fact
be the default behaviour if gnome-keyring is found and GNOME compatibility is
enabled, then that sounds entirely reasonable and desirable even.

I haven't looked much at the implementation of gnome-keyring, but I wonder what
about it ties it to "gnome" and if it's indeed just come along with GNOME and
unfortunately been unnecessarily given "gnome" in it's name.

Given all of the backlash GNOME is suffering lately, it might be wise of them
to un-gnome it and just make it a generic keyring service not tied to gnome. 
But I digress.
