Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-keyring

gnome-keyring-ask will display many confirmation dialogs at the same time, for the same item.

the way that I trigger this bug is by using a gnome-vfs samba share (with password) to host my rhythmbox share. when rhythmbox opens, and my keyring is locked, it displays many dialog boxes to unlock the keyring (this only happens when the keyring is locked, of course)

here are links to related bugs:
in gnome: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=331003 (this is very similar)
in ubuntu's network-manager: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/31286

expected outcome: instead of launching multiple dialog boxes, it simply checks the open ones and makes sure that it would not be launching a duplicate dialog box.

this is under dapper with gnome-keyring version 0.4.9-1ubuntu1

note that the patch for the gnome link does not apply to the newest sources that I get with apt-get source gnome-keyring, because it is a different version.

I can provide more information, as neccesary.
