Hi all. I've just submitted a pull request for some code that tries to implement this feature.
Various environment variable are used to guess which backend to use and requests are then passed to either gnome-keyring or kwallet (for KF5).
I've done some testing of this code but would appreciate any further testing people are able to do (especially from GNOME and other desktops).
Any feedback and suggestions are much appreciated.

As a KDE desktop user, supporting KDE would be appreciated.

I'll add my voice to this issue, slack app stopped working for me because it couldn't find libgnome-keyring.so.0.

@jalcine I think we'd totally be into that patch, if you can make it support both (and know when to pick the right one)

@paulcbetts Thanks! I'll pull something together when I get some time.

@paulcbetts it should be impossible to have libgnome-keyring and kdewallet(aka kwallet) on the same system since they conflict with each other and each belong to their respective desktop environments.
I'm thinking about looking into this myself and providing a patch since its kind of annoying being unable to save passwords in the brave browser without having to install an extra password manager and/or installing a gnome library that i don't want since it conflicts with my currently installed password manager.

Well here is kwallet.h https://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdelibs-apidocs/kdeui/html/kwallet_8h_source.html
from node-keytar.
ATM i see no way to detect kwallet

@belldandu If I had to guess, it probably at the end of the day puts itself up as a DBus service

@paulcbetts Good guess. Evidence can be seen here.
