public class Keyring extends Object
The key identifier should be unique for the whole application, so qualify it with any prefixes as needed.
Avoid calling methods on this class from the event dispatch thread, as some provider implementations may need to block while displaying a dialog (e.g. prompting for a master password to access the keyring).
