OK, I got the error happening reliably by using my base Eclipse as opposed
to the dev runtime. After merging your change to the 1.8.x branch it all
worked correctly. For the most part the password is just stored seamlessly
in the login keyring with no user intervention -- which is awesome. But I
also tried manually locking the login keyring and I received the GUI prompt
to unlock it and that also worked correctly.
If you nominate this for backport you can include my +1 vote.
