i just installed both seahorse and vinagre on xfce.  neither pops up

its unnecessary if i do not wish to use that feature.  i think it makes
complete sense if i as the user actually want to start using the
keyring, but until i say that i want to do that, i shouldn't see
anything about that.

thanks for looking into this.
