This would indeed be very useful when using an alternative secrets manager,
like KeePassXC. If gnome-keyring is installed then it takes over the libsecret
d-bus interface and KeePassXC does not work properly.
I am using gnome-calendar in XFCE together with KeePassXC, so I need gnome-
keyring to stay out of the way. In fact, I can check that when I kill gnome-
keyring, so that KeePassXC is the libsecret provider, the syncronization of
calendars using the goa deamon retrieves the password from KeePassXC.
