Actually, I should probably check. This is the default behaviour if you
have auto-login enabled, and I don't know how to disable that (nor would
I want to).

To change the keyring password, go to Applications -> Accessories ->
Passwords and Encryption Keys. Right-click on Passwords: login and
select Change Password.
Seems a little confusing, since you're changing the seahorse password,
not your user login password, but there you go.
