Of course it would, since programs accessing the keyring use D-Bus to
connect to the daemon.

The real problem if you don’t use a session manager is that the daemon
itself is not started at login time. AIUI it is only pre-loaded by the
PAM module, and if the daemon is not started a few seconds after, it
exits and the password information is lost.
