(assuming we're just talking about GNU Emacs)

I asked for this on emacs-devel a year ago and again a few months ago
and Ben Key said he would look at it (see
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.devel/137135 and
http://search.gmane.org/?query=keychain+zlatanov&group=gmane.emacs.devel
for the background).

One poster suggested
http://log.scifihifi.com/post/55837387/simple-iphone-keychain-code where
an explanation of the API can be found.

CC to Ben and emacs-devel; Ben, are you still interested in doing this?

Thanks
Ted
