can someone point out on me how gnome-keyring works?

[Christoph Höger]

Hi,

I want to add gnome-keyring features to the gnome branch of offlineimap.
Setting and retrieving Passwords works, but I could need some advice:

1. What parameters should I put into the keyring functions? I see server
and protocoll elements in the attrs dict. Does that mean gnomekeyring
stores values on a per host/service base? If yes, is it valid to put
arbitrary strings ("offlineimap<ACCOUNT>") here?

2. From a security point of view: How does gnomekeyring decide to give
an app access if the users select "always allow" on later calls?

3. Would calling the app via cron cause any communication problems?

thanks

Christoph
