Again based on my FOSS  classes, users pretty much always question me about this, after setting up WiFi or the VPN.

From my POV this looks as another case of Education.
Better wording, a link Help local file (yelp) explaining *what* keyring is, would[1] improve this.

[1] yes this is theory, in reality at this point the user just wants to use the network, so the more popups or delays we input will just frustrate the user, and they will eventually leave a blank and insecure password
