I tried adding a new keyring using jhbuild. It couldn't talk to the keyring service and it failed. That's not good but it can happen. However, what isn't cool is showing scary details when it does happen.

I would suggest a sad computer icon and some text similar to:
"Sorry! The keyring service doesn't seem to be available."
