It's not a /fix/ it's a /function/.  I have a netbook with a separate 
keyring password from my login because I work on several independent 
networks for which I don't want to have to remember their passwords and 
accept that the netbook is a physical security risk because of it's size. 

On the flip side I have a laptop that I *don't* lug around with me 
everywhere and have no need for the keyring so I *deactivate it* on 
first boot by simply not providing a password.  NM is then free to 
remember the couple of passwords for the given networks it works on.
